Been climbing trees I've skinned my knees
Emaj7
my hands are black the sun is going down
B
She scruffs my hair in the kitchen steam
Emaj7
She's listening to the dream I weaved today
B
Crosswords through the bathroom door
Emaj7
while someone sings the theme-tune to the news
B
and my sister buzzes through the room leaving perfume in the air
Emaj7
and that's what triggered this.
B
I come back here from time to time
Emaj7
I shelter here some days.

B
G# high-back chair. He sits and stares
Emaj7
G# thousand yards and whistle's marching-band
B
Kneeling by and speaking up
Emaj7
He reaches out and I take a massive hand.
B
Disjointed tales that flit between
Emaj7
short trousers and a full dress uniform
B
And he talks of people ten years gone like I've known them all my life
Emaj7
Like scattered black 'n' whites....
B
I come back here from time to time
Emaj7
I shelter here some days.
B
I come back here from time to time
Emaj7

Ok, enjoy, and get picking...
Lol, this is an endurance song - your hand is very tired after this...
