days gone Chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Lying on the motorway this morning
I thought I heard a distant thunder rolling
[G]So [C]I l[Am]ay so still [G]on the m[Em]ould away[F]
Till [C]the cavalcade came screaming past
Like hell hounds in my ears
It was [Am]over in a mo[G]ment,
the [C]wind like a tor[F]nado
The [Am]sweet perfume of [G]petrol
like [C]a lovers' party [F]kiss
Then I [Am]closed my [G]eyes on
[C]the mortal [F]wave
And [C]I dreamed about the days gone by,
brave boys
I dreamed about the days gone by
Lying on the motorway this evening
The gypsies came up close
while I'm sleeping
[Am]So quietly h[G]e'd done
them [C]all to [F]waste
[C]Pulling their possessions
in the cover of the night
They'd [Am]soon seen the [G]world end,
[C]the shining black reces[F]sion
[Am]Screaming past [G]like orbs
ascend[C]ing through a tar[F]mac sky
So [Am]they hid them[G]selves
by the [C]motor[F]way
They [C]dreamed about the days gone by,
brave boys
They dreamed about the day
that's gone [F]away[C][F][C]
And [Am]what were they [G]doing,
those [C]people from the [F]government
Burning [Am]sacrificial gas[G]oline
to [C]keep the dogs at [F]bay
There were [Am]shadows in the [G]hedgerows,
and [C]strange lights from [F]the slip [G]-roads
[C]So we huddled on the motorway, boys
We huddled on the motorway
You
