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