Текст песни Ian McNabb — Great Dreams Of Heaven + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
INTRO: D G D
VERSE 1:
D
Got failing light and aching bones, got beds in subways, paper homes
G D
Got clear blue skies and rainy days, got sailors sailing, sailing
D
Got mighty ships to cross the sea, got plenty of room for you and me
G D
Got babies being born HIV, got programmes failing, failing
CHORUS 1:
D A G D
Liberty and freedom all the things that men require
D A G D
Children singing, church bells ringing, objects of desire
D A G D
Football teams and crazy scenes from nineteen sixty seven
G D A D
And we got great dreams of heaven
VERSE 2:
D
Got TV shows from satellite, got company on winter nights
G D
Excess of pills of pure delight, got flags all waving, waving
D
Got sandy beaches everywhere, fuel injected cars to get us there
G D
Got pension plans and healthcare, got daylight saving, saving
CHORUS 2:
D A G D
Decency and honesty, the things that folk depend on
D A G D
Introduction, a dirty joke, and then a song to end on
D A G D
Countries die when rockets fly and cities have been levelled
G D A D G D
And we got great dreams of heaven
VERSE 3:
D
Got ways of living, left and right, fast talking chat shows, sponsored fight
G D
Got kids who'll steal for just a hit, politicians talking, talking
D
Got idols selling fizzy drink, got reckless stealing everything
G D
So what going on, it's hard to think, soap stars are singing, singing
CHORUS 3:
D A G D
Verdant scenes and ways and means to understand our being
D A G D
Holocaust, catastrophe and beauty we are seeing
D A G D
Harder times of holy wine and bread that is unleavened
G D A D G D G D
And we got great dreams of heaven
CHORUS 4:
D A G D
Crazy leaders, self assured, who sit atop their nations
D A G D
Banners headed peace and freedom, justice and damnation
D A G D
Cold wind blowing, embers glowing, God knows where we're heading
G D A D
But we got great dreams of heaven
G D A D
But we got great dreams of heaven
G D A D G D
But we got great dreams of heaven
