A beautifully haunting little ballad by EC&A. One of my faves from Goodbye Cruel
World, and it was pretty easy to figure out. Song is in 3/4 time and the key of D Major.
Intro:
F C A
Verse 1:
D
Out of the aeroplane stepped Chamberlain with a condemned man's stare
D D
But we all cheered wildly, a photograph was taken,
D7 G
as he waved a piece of paper in the air
Em Em/D# Em7 A
Now the Disco Machine lives in Munich and we are all friends
A7 A
And I slip on my Italian dancing shoes as the evening descends
Chorus:
D Dmaj7 D6 D7/A
And the bells take their toll once again in victory chime
G Bm Em A
And we can thank God that we've finally got
D
peace in our time
Verse 2:
D
There's a man going round taking names no
matter who you claim to be
D
As innocent as babies, a mad dog with rabies,
D7 G
you're still a part of some conspiracy
Em Em/D#
Meanwhile there's a light over the ocean
Em7 A
burning brighter than the sun
A7
And a man sits alone in a bar and says "Oh God,
A
what have we done?"
Chorus:
D Dmaj7 D6 D7/A
And the bells take their toll once again in victory chime
G Bm Em A
And we can thank God that we've finally got
D
peace in our time
Instrumental Bridge:
D A7 F#
Bm E A Bm
Verse 3:
D
They're lighting a bonfire upon every hilltop in the land
D
Just another tiny island invaded when he's got
D7 G
the whole world in his hands
Em Em/D#
And the Heavyweight Champion fights in the
Em7 A
International Propaganda Star Wars
A7
There's already one spaceman in the White
A
House, what do you want another one for?
Chorus:
D Dmaj7 D6 D7/A
And the bells take their toll once again in victory chime
G Bm Em A
And we can thank God that we've finally got
Outro:

peace in our time.
