Gulliver/Hay-Chewed


Gm 
 
Gm 
Gulliver’s gone to the
D/F# 
final command of his  
Eb 
master
 
His  
F 
watery eyes had  
Bb 
washed all the hills with his l
Abmaj7 
aughter
 
And the  
Bb 
seasons can change all the light from the grey to the
Ab 
dim
 
But the  
Gm 
light in his eyes will see  
F 
no more bright
 
As the  
Eb 
sheep that he locked in the  
D 
pen
 
There’s  
G 
four feet of ground in  
F/G 
front of the barn
 
That’s  
C/G 
sun baked and rain soaked and part of the
G 
farm  
C/G 
G 
But now it lies empty so  
F/G 
cold and so bare
C/G 
Gulliver’s gone but his  
G 
memory lies there  
Gm 

By passing the doors of his life was a stage I remember

And in later years he would cease to bare teeth to a stranger
For sentiment touched him as Cyclamen holds him
And later men came from the town
Who said clear the child this won’t take a while
And Gulliver’s gone with the dawn

It’s Hay Chewed
