Pink Floyd

G C G
He made his way to the border
F C F D
In the shadow under the trees
G C G
Down by a stream in a hollow
F C F D
Turn your head feel the breeze
E C G
And the red Queen was waiting for the news
E G
For the white King to move
E C G
And the balance hung upon the head of one who tried
F
To stay within the shadows
D
And keep his undercover secret tight
G C G
They let him in by a backway
F C F D
Into a chamber reserved for the Queen
G C G
She took the note that he gave her
F C F D
Opened it slowly and started to read
E C G
Run to the treasury and bring me back some gold
E G
Give it to the pawn who came, she cried
E C G
He says the white King thinks the game of chess is wrong
F
And all the courtiers crowded her
D
and this is what she told the gathered round
G C F
Go to the store by the dungeon
F C F D
Take all the red paint take all the white
G C G
Make up a newborn colour
F C F D
Cover your neighbor we'll be all right
E C G
There will be no game today, she cried across the board
E G
Everyday will be a holiday
E C G
And all the pieces cheered as tidings spread abroad
F
And the Pink Queen sat
D
and smiled at the cat who smiled back
