Chords Roger Waters - Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert And Southampton Dock
Lyrics Roger Waters - Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert And Southampton Dock
roger waters ( acoustic guitar ) in the flesh live
G
brezhnev took afghanistan
C
and begin took beirut
D G
galtieri took the union jack
G
and maggie , over lunch one day ,
C
took a cruiser with all hands
D G
apparently to make him give it back .
C G
uuuuuuuh maggie what have you done?
G
they disembarked in 45 ,
C
and no – one spoke and no – one smiled
D G
there were to many spaces in the line
gathered at the cenotaph
C
all agreed with the hand on heart ,
D G
to sheath the sacrificial knives
G
but now she stands upon southampton dock
C
with her handkerchief
D
and her summer frock clings
G
to her wet body in the rain .
in quiet desperation knuckles
C
white upon the slippery reins
D G
she bravely waves the boys goodbye again
C G
uuuuuuuh maggie what have you done?
C
and still the dark stain spreads between
G
his shoulder blades
C G G7 Am7
a mute reminder of the poppy fields and graves
G7 C D Em7 D7
and when the fight was over
G Cm7 Em
we spent what they had made
Am7
but in the bottom of our hearts
we felt the final cut .
