Subject: CRD: "Folded Flags" by Roger Waters
I captured this of an FTP site and after playing it on the piano I
noticed several mistakes in the chords and the lyrics. Here is my
corrected version:
FOLDED FLAGS
by Roger Waters
chords by Karl Magnacca, with assistance from members of Echoes
(corrected by Chad Hendrickson)
D Dmaj7
Rock-a-bye baby on the treetop
D7 G
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
D A
Oh babe, hate to see you fall that way
Bm A G
Better speak to the Powers That Be today
D A
Hey Joe where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
Bm A G
You can take your revenge, but you'll still feel bad
D A
There must be more to life than Lucky Strikes and some unlucky ones,
C G D
Folded flags and pipes and drums
D Dmaj7
I stood in the wings with you, our lives in the hands of a second-rate actor
D7 G
Held on the high ground of some big stage
D A
Oh babe, how do these jaded stars get so far away?
Bm A G
Will they catch what the other actors say?
D A
Hey Joe where you goin' with that dogma in your head?
Bm A G
You can prove your point but your kids will still be dead
D A
Bring down the curtain, this soap opera must surely close
C G D
Before the cold wind blows
G D
Hey Joe where you goin' with that gun in your hand?
G D
You can take your revenge, but you'll still feel bad
Em A Em A
Bring down the curtain, this soap opera must surely close
F#m Fm Em
Before the cold wind blows
D Dmaj7
So rock-a-bye babe on the treetop
D7 G
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
D A
There must be more to life than Lucky Strikes and some unlucky ones,
Bm Dm Em D
Folded flags and pipes and drums
