THE DAY THEY FREED THE NOISE - Doug Ashdown
D5 D*
The day they freed the noise
D - Dsus4 D
There were scarlett coated boys
D5 D*
Marching down the village morra fair
D - Dsus4 D
We were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
D E7
We were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
G D
We were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
D E7
We were there, when they killed him, weren´t we brother
G D Dsus4 - D /
We were there, we were there, we were there
D E7
And the birds still sang, then, didn´t they
G D Dsus4 - D - Dsus2 -
When we had ears to hear
D E7
And the trees still grew in the foggy sun
G D
For they had no reason to fear
G F - Em
A crushing blow Of the axeman steel
D A Asus4 - A
As it shot upon us all
D E7
And the houses wept, As the children slept
G D
They knew the walls would fall
D E7
And we were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
G D
We were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
D E7
We were there, when they killed him, weren´t we brother
G D Dsus4 - D /
We were there, we were there, we were there
D E7
Number zero, forty-one,
G D
with hast the dog-tag read
D E7
As his blind eyes lookd at the foggy sun
G D
He didn´t know the noise was dead
G F - Em
And the words still rang then didn´t they
D A Asus4 - A
Without the years to hear
D E7
And the trees were burned by the foggy sun
G D Dsus4 - D
They had reason now to fear
D E7
And we were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
G D
We were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
D E7
We were there, when they killed him, weren´t we brother
G D Dsus4 - D /
We were there, we were there, we were there
start fading
D E7
And we were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
G D
We were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
D E7
We were there, when they killed him, weren´t we brother
G D Dsus4 - D /
We were there, we were there, we were there
D E7
And we were there, weren´t we brother, we were there
