Pink Floyd — A Great Day For Freedom

Verse:
Cm                Cm-5        
On the day the wall came down, 
Cm               Cm-5
They threw the locks on to the ground
Fm/Ab                                 
And with glasses high we raised a cry 
    Gsus4             G
For freedom had arrived 

Cm                Cm-5        
And on the day the wall came down
Cm                Cm-5        
The ship of fools had finally run aground.
Fm/Ab
Promises lit up the night 
    Gsus4             G
Like paper doves in flight.

Chorus:
     F        G/F      F       
I dreamed you had left my side. 
                G/F  F     F/C C
No warmth not even pride remained -
F/C           F           G/F   
And even though you needed me, 
 F                    G/F F
It was clear that I could not
F/C  C       C G/C G/B   
Do a thing for you.

Verse:
Cm                Cm-5        
Now life devalues day by day
Cm                Cm-5        
As friends and neighbours turn away.
Fm/Ab
And there´s a change that even 
    Gsus4             G
With regret can not be undone.

Cm                Cm-5        
Now frontiers shift like desert sands,
Cm                Cm-5        
As nations wash their bloodied hands
Fm/Ab
Of loyalty, of history, 
    Gsus4       G
In shades of grey.

Chorus:
     F        G/F      F       
I woke to the sound of drums.
                G/F  F     F/C C
The music played, the morning sun streamed in.
F/C           F          G/F   
I turned and I looked at you,
 F                    G/F F
And all but the bitter residue slipped away,
F/C  C  C G/C G/B   
Slipped away.
