>> KARAOKE TEXTY >> KARAOKE TEXTY g >> Graham Parker >>

(1992 by Graham Parker, submitted by Kirk Anderson) (kanderso@wheatonma.edu)

       D                         A

They took their kids in their teenage years

  D                   G

Fitted them out with combat gear,

  D                        A             Bm         G

Filled their hearts with mortal fear and sent them away

  D                    A

Some came home their pants in creases

  D                G

Some came home in bits and pieces

      D               A                          G             D

The president made a lot of speeches and went fishing for the day

 

          D               A                D              G

'Cause they have short memories, they forget it all so quickly

  D                 A               Bm  G

They have short memories, now it's gone

  D                 A              D                     G

They have short memories, it disappears just like quicksilver

  D                 A                 G  D

They have short memories, now it's gone

 

My Daddy was in Nicosea, Egypt and North Korea

He came back to a good career, shovelling coal

I was just the village lout I never got my finger out

I never wanted for anything still I broke and entered and stole

 

[bridge]

 Em

You can't stop a train or catch the rain drops

             D A G

As they come falling

  Em

Sure there'll be another war

                                    D    A

Sure as sure the call-up will come calling

 

       D                         A

They took their kids in their teenage years

  D                   G

Gave them a God that they could fear

  D               A       Bm         G

Said they could kill but not drink beer

      Bm        G

And sent them away

  D                    A

Some came home in a body bag

  D                G

Some came home wrapped in a flags

      D                     A                           G        D

And on each toe there hung a tag saying there'll be more someday

 

[repeat first chorus]

            G                Em             D

...now it's gone,  now it's gone, now it's gone
