Eb tuning
A new version of "The Wall" of of Springsteen's High Hopes. The timing is a little weird
but easy if you listen. The lyrics are different from the unreleased version.
Pluck the chords throughout
Intro: A-C#m
A C#m
Cigarettes and a bottle of beer, this poem that I wrote for you
A C#m
This black stone and these hard tears, they're all I've got left now of you
F#m C#m
I remember you in your Marine uniform laughing, laughing at your ship out party
F#m C#m
I've read Robert McNamara, he says he's sorry
A C#m
Yeah, you and your boots and black t-shirt, oh, Billy you looked so bad
A C#m
Yeah you and your rock and roll band was the best thing this shit town ever had
F#m A C#m
Now the men that put you here eat with their families in rich dining halls
F#m C#m A
And apology and forgiveness got no place here at all, here at the wall

|A|C#m|A||C#m|F#m|A|C#m|F#m|A|C#m|
A C#m
I'm sorry that I missed you last year, I couldn't find no one to drive me
A C#m
If your eyes could cut through that black stone, tell me would they recognize me
F#m A C#m
For the living time it must be served, the day goes on
F#m A C#m
Cigarettes and a bottle of beer and skin on black stone
A C#m
On the ground dog tags and wreaths of flowers, with their ribbons as red as the blood
A C#m
Red as the blood you spilled, in the Central Highlands mud
F#m A C#m
Limousines rush down Pennsylvania Avenue rustling the leaves as they fall
F#m A C#m A E
Apology and forgiveness got no place here at all, here at the wall
