The Wall

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: - Cigarettes and a bottle of beer this poem that I wrote for you This black stone and these hard tears they’re all I’ve got left now of you I remember you in your Marine uniform laughing laughing at your ship out party I’ve read Robert McNamara he says he’s sorry Yeah you and your boots and black t-shirt oh Billy you looked so bad      Yeah you and your rock and roll band was the best thing this shit town ever had Now the men that put you here eat with their families in rich dining halls              And apology and forgiveness got no place here at all here at the wall       |||||||||||| I’m sorry that I missed you last year I couldn’t find no one to drive me If your eyes could cut through that black stone tell me would they recognize me For the living time it must be served the day goes on Cigarettes and a bottle of beer and skin on black stone     On the ground dog tags and wreaths of flowers with their ribbons as red as the blood Red as the blood you spilled in the Central Highlands mud Limousines rush down Pennsylvania Avenue rustling the leaves as they fall                 Apology and forgiveness got no place here at all here at the wall                    ||||||||||| (x2 and fade out)
