Intro- Em

D G D C

I wrote this once before, long before the summer

D G D Em

You were then a student and we were dark as angels

A G A C

We were in the east, working to the west

A G/B A C

The west was looking south, and the south she had no pity

G/B C

But last night I dreamed

A C

and you were always in it

G/B C

there were hopes and plans and schemes

A C

and the town was full of winners

G/B C A C

Oh brother, oh sister, this changing light

G/B C

Has lighted things so differently

A Cadd9

Has lighted things so differently

I wrote this once before

And we were all then working

We thought we'd stop the flow

Of cruel and heartless women

If I'd known this then

What would these wings have done

They'd have beat and flapped and flown

And not done and not done

But last night I dreamed

and you were always in it

there were hopes and plans and schemes

and the town was full of winners

Oh brother, oh sister, this changing light

Has lighted things so differently

Has lighted things so differently

D G D C repeat til fade

I wrote it on my hand ,I kept it in the dark

I never ran it through my hair ,I stuffed it in my pocket

I wrote this on a journey ,All the way from Spain

Where our fellows fought ,And never came back again
