[Verse 1]
[Am]As m[E]y granddad l[A]ay d[E]ying
in [D]hospit[E]al[A][Am]
Visions of the past through [A]shad[Am]ows
on the [Bm]skirting [A]board[E]
[Am]Through [Dm]a fog he c[Am]ould see
Per[A]fectly, clearly,
a [E]fireteam's [A]cru[Am]mbling
He [A]described the soldiers
and a [C#m]ice -crew
[F#m]when
[E]They [A]were [E]only [A]inches [E]high,
[D]locked [Dm]in batt[C]le
[Am]Run [A]ning t[Am]o th[A]e fu[Bm]ture
Advan[C#m]cing a[A]cross the
[Ebm]floor[D][Am]
[F]
[Am]Throughout his [A]life my granddad
had a re[D]curring [A]dream
[Am]Of fighting as a young man i[A]n the
muddy [Am]fields on the [E]way to
[A]Rome[E]
[Am]His [Dm]company [Am]severely depleted,
torn to bloody shreds
The [E]shout [A]came to [Am]retrieve[D]
[A]When he reached the trench the
men were [C#m]packed like [F#m]sardines[E]
[A]He [E]couldn't find a place to [Dm]hunker [C]down
[Am]He w[A]ould w[Am]ake up[A] r[E]unni[Bm]ng
[C#m]Screaming [A]to [C#m]the pa[A]s t[Ebm][D][F#m][D]
[A]Is [D]there any room for [A]the [F#m]lost?
[A]

[Verse 3]
Then the [A]soldiers disappeared and
my [D]grand[A]dad saw
[Am]Ascending a tiny steplad[Dm]der,
[Am]a balding man in over [Bm]alls[A]
Who [D]took a [Dm]brush the
size of a [Am]postage stamp
And biting down cold on all
that [E]dreary [A]room
[Am]In h[A]is final moments
he was [C#m]back at h[F#m]ome
The [E]smell of
Yorkshire [A]puddings
drifted [Dm]through the [C]garden[Am]
[A]Tadded [Am]to th[A]e bu[Bm]ddleias
They [C#m]hover [A]rou[E]nd his[C#m] hide[A][Ebm][D]
[F#m]Ooh, ooh, o[A]oh, ooh, ooh
[Am]So m[D]any beautiful butterfl[A]ies[Am][F#m][A][Am][Dm][D][C#m]
[Bb][A][Am][A][Am][A][Am][A][Am]
[F][Am][A][Bm][C#m]
[E]Is there any [Em]room for [F#m]control?[A]
[Am][D][C#m][Bb][A][Am][Am]
[A][Am]
[Am]You[C][Am]
