Between the very memory and approaches of war

Loose change lonely, not the right amount

Somebody's calling you again

E
Her soft breath was gentle on his neck
C#m G# C#m
If he could choose the time to die
G#
Then he would come and go like this
C#m F#m(2) C#m
Underneath a painted sky
E G#7/D# C#m
She woke up and called him "Charlie" by mistake

And then warms their hands around the brazier

Brilliantine glistening

the lonely sound of jingling spurs,

The "toodle-oos" and "Oh, my dears" down at The Argyle
