D G D
When I was a little baby, my momma rocked me in the
cradle
D A
in them old killing fields back home.
D G
When Adolf schizomania was burning central Manchester
D A G D
in them killing fields back home.

G
Everybody's got one, somewhere to run and
D
my spitfires dog the spires of dover.
G
And there were bluebirds in the, July skies above her
D G Dm C Dm
though very soon it would be over, over.

Dm D2 Dm D2
She died in the middle of the summer
G C Dm D2 Dm D2
in a soaking wet wilderness, fighting for the flame of
life.
Dm D2 Dm D2
Dodging the bullet and the drummer
G C Dm D2 Dm D2
till the devil inside her, bayoneted his beautiful
wife.
Cadd9 Dm D2 Dm D2
Oh--- so long, so long the knife
Cadd9 Dm D2 Dm D2
oh--- so young, to be taken from this life
Cadd9
oh--- so young.

Cadd9 F G
Muriel, you turned me on to heaven,
Am Dm Cadd9
found yourself in hell, dear mother.
Cadd9 F G
Muriel, dancing in your shadow,
Am Dm Cadd9
I know you oh so well, like no one other.

G F? G F?
I'll forgive you for leaving me here, it's a beautiful place
G F? Am
Always seems like i'm holding you near in endless
embrace
Dm G
cruising the room with amazing grace.

Chorus:
Cadd9
We'll be dancing all the night, We'll be dancing all
the night,
G
We'll be dancing all the night, in the moonlight.

We'll be dancing all the night, We'll be dancing all
the night,
Cadd9
We'll be dancing all the night, in the moonlight.

Cadd9 F G
Muriel, I must have always sussed you,
Am Dm Cadd9
I guess I always will, I live in wonder.
Cadd9 F G
Muriel, I must have always kissed you,
Am Dm Cadd9
one kiss and I can tell, blood love and thunder.

G F? G F?
I'll forgive you for leaving me here, it's a beautiful
place
G F? Am
Always feels like i'm holding you near in endless
embrace
Dm G
cruising the room with amazing grace.

Chorus:
Cadd9
We'll be dancing all the night, We'll be dancing all
the night,
G
We'll be dancing all the night, in the moonlight.

We'll be dancing all the night, We'll be dancing all
the night,
Cadd9
We'll be dancing all the night, in the moonlight.

Outro: Cadd9 G (x?)
