G 
I'm riding on a train 
G/F#         Em 
well you know 
C 
cute girl in an english hat 
D 
why'd it have to rain like that? 
G                          G/F#      Em 
and in pulling off her scarf I let go 
C 
it floated like a wounded bird 
D 
her mouth the shape of spanish words 
G 
Well you know 
  G/F# 
I think 
   Em 
I can 
C  
vanish with the evening rust 
D 
join the ghost that haunted us  
G 
Well you know  
  G/F#     Em  
I think I am 
C 
Heroic in a failing way 
D 
For some of us it goes that way  
C         Em             G    D 
dulce et decorum est my dear 
C                               Em              G             D 
 it's sweet, it's right there's nothing for you here  Here 

     G                     G/F#     Em 
when someone lets you down you free fall 

C 
to that bigger hand around your wrist 

D 
you'll swear you never wanted this 

         G 
well you know 
  G/F# 
I think 
   Em 
I can 
C 
vanish with the evening rust 
D 
joing the ghost that haunted us 

         g 
well you know 
   G/F# 
I think 
   Em 
I am 
C 
heroic in failing way 
D 
for some of us it goes that way 
C          Em           G 
dulce et decorum est my dear 
C                              Em              G      D 
it's sweet, it's right there's nothing for you here  Here 
        G                 G/F# 
now i'm pouring something cold 
        Em 
down my throat 
         C                     
and i'm thinking about you and me 
        D 
once we had drink or two or three 
           G              G/F#     Em 
But those cold and autumn stars refused 
        C 
we were swimming  in that frozen lake 
    D                                G   G/F#  Em  C  D 
our eyes the sound that sierns make. OH   Oh   Oh   Oh Oh
