Pink Floyd - Country Song Tabs

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
