XTC – Red Brick Dream (Guitar)

E   E6    E              E6   E
Red brick dre----am.  Windows scre---am.

E    E6    E             E6   E
As   the   rusting north star shines above. 

E6   E            E6   E
And drops it’s  iron   beams.

E        B             Bb       A       E         E6   E
Crashing down upon the roofs of Swindon tow-----n.

E                                 E6     E                       
I heard the engines dieing breath.

E                                      E6     E                       
Castles and kings who starved to death.

E                                   E6                           
I dropped the coronation cup (chhh).

B                      Bb      A         E          E6   E /   E   E6   E
Please don’t wake them up from red brick dre-----am.

E   E6    E                  E6   E
Red brick dre----ams.     Buttons gle----am.

E    E6    E       E6   E          E6   E              E6     E
By   the  light of the  furnace pouring mouton memories.

E         B             Bb       A       E        E6   E
Splashing down upon the roofs of Swindon tow-----n.

E                             E6     E                       
The men of muscle fix the rot.  

E                               E6     E                       
Who forms the losses all forgot.

E                                   E6                            
They made the Thomas and the Jane’s.

B              Bb      A         E                
Sleeping it remains in red brick dreams.
