  "Army (Dream Song)"

  Boiled in Lead

  Album: _Orb_

  Words and music: Todd Menton

  

  INTRO (single strokes): D D  Em G F#m F#m  D Em G F#m F#m  F#m Bm A

                          D D  Em G F#m F#m  D Em G F#m (full measure)

                             Em (full measure)

  

        D         Em       G      F#m

  In my dream I'm suddenly in the army

          Em   G       F#m

  And the army life is good

          Bm            A

  But I'm ankle deep in blood

       D       Em      G      F#m

  So I went to see the quartermaster

          Em     G      F#m

  And the quartermaster said

        F#m             Em

  "Your socks are awful red"

  

  I found the master sergeant

  I said "Sergeant, I am hurting

  I'm considering deserting."

  He said "Do whatever's in your conscience"

  So I tried to make a run

  But I was stapled to the gun

  

                  D           Em       G        F#m

  CHORUS: And the cannon were lined up all in a line

          G        F#m

          Dark and cold

               G                       F#m

          They aimed them all straight upward

              Em      D

          And thunder rolled

  

  REPEAT INTRO

  

  I found the first lieutenant

  He said "God, they're going to bomb us

  >From their vicious flying llamas!"

  I dove into the llama shelter

  I became Charlotte Cordet

  And the battle fell away

  

  But the peace that reigned in Upper Dreamland

  Was badly negated

  When the giant slugs invaded

  I turned to face my fine young officers

  I was barking out my orders

  When they crashed across the borders

  

  CHORUS TWICE

  

  Repeat intro chords, end on D
