I wrote this song years ago late at night
F Bb
somewhere on the Goldhawk Road
Eb F
I was never sure how or why
Gm
Before the war and the tidal wave engulfed us all it’s true
F Bb
how the world has changed
Eb F
And I was learning how to change with you
Bb Am Gm
We saw the green fields
D
Turn into stone
Eb F
Such lonely homes
Bb Am Gm
All in a badman’s dream
D
He ain’t asleep
Eb F
It’s just a dream
Gm
In the darkest hour the song had gone
F Bb
it passed among the people
Eb F
I hardly knew I was losing it all the time
Gm
But she stayed with me and found me out
F Bb
and above all things I’ve learnt
Eb F
It’s that honesty that secures the bond in the heart
Bb Am Gm
We saw the green fields
D
Turn into stone
Eb F
Such lonely homes
Bb Am Gm
All in a badman’s dream
D
He ain’t asleep
Eb F
It’s just a dream
