Winston Churchills Boy

Dm Never in the field of human affection Gm Had so much been given for so few attention A Never in the field of human affection Dm Had so much been given for so few attention Dm Gm Winston boy Oh! There he is packing, quietly alone A You could mistake a clock ticking Dm For a cricket cricketing when you're around him But I swear! Dm Nobody knows, Gm Nobody knows A Dm What's on this boys mind Dm And nobody sees, Gm Nobody sees A Dm What he's been picturing (Strumming) Dm Bb "We all make a living by what we get F A A#dim7 But we make life by what we give, by what we give Dm Bb But in some special circumstances this special circumstance F Winston Boy will have to earn a living A A#dim7 Before he earns enough living to give" Dm Bb "Where is your family? F Where are your loved ones?" Someone uttered A A#dim7 Whilst he went on crossing the Channel Dm "Well, they say no man can be a prophet Bb F In his own country, so I left, here I am A A#dim7 Come on embrace me, hold me! I am your brother!" Now whilst he kept on talking Dm Bb In his left pocket layed the prose of the magnificent Orwell F His right hand embraced a battered guitar borrowed A A#dim7 Borrowed from me! Come to think about it, Dm Bb I think a few years ago I heard him talk about how F God blessed an eagle with 54 stars A A#dim7 And maybe he's gone he's gone wondering Looking for his kind of star Dm Bb But even stars If we think about it, even beautiful stars F They tend to shoot through the night A A#dim7 And you never find them again! Dm Bb Never and never and never again! F And so don't you judge Winston Boy A A#dim7 Don't you ever judge Winston boy Bb C F C Bb One day this boy might be the man Bb C F C Bb Though clearly nobody knows when or how Bb C F C Dm C One day this boy will stand in front of a pulpit Bb C Dm As the world gives him but a minute Bb C F And there he will tell the world where he's been and how Bb C F C Bb Underground to upper ground in the depths of i will surely survive Bb C F C Dm C He shares his story with a cup of tears streaming from his eyes Bb C Dm One day this boy will be fine Bb C F C Dm C One day this boy will be fine Bb C Dm Better watch out now, that day might be today!
