Dodos And Dinosaurs

G
Sitting out upon the terrace
C
Waited on by native hands
G
Watch the purple shadows spread
C
Like wings across your land
          Em         Bm
And drift away into a daydream
    Em                Bm
Of a young and handsome man
C           G
In a miliary uniform
Am           Bm   Em
A long time, gone time
Am      Am/G  D/F#
For the world began

[Chorus 1]
Em            Emmaj7           
Sleeping in a twilight that is 
Em7               A7
red and white and blue
C                G         
The Dodo and the Dinosaur are 
    Am   D     G
waiting for you
G C x2

G
Great white guard, the one who needs
 him
C
Gone the way of Santa Claus
G
Missionary soldier boy
C
Now worn out by the wars
           Em             Bm
And by the cause that you believed 
in
         Em                   Bm
When you took the black mans land
        C                    G
For you thought that you knew better
       Am            Bm   Em
In the old days, the cold days
Am     Am/G      D/F#
Before the world began

[Chorus 2]
Em            Emmaj7           
Sleeping in a twilight that is 
Em7               A7
red and white and blue
C                G         
The Dodo and the Dinosaur are 
    Am   D     G
waiting for you
G C x2

[Verse 3]
G
Empires melt and shadows lengthen
C
Banners hang on dusty walls
G
The Master and the Mistress
C
Bring the servants call
           Em               Bm
But nobody comes and so you sit 
there
          Em            Bm
With your bible in your hand
       C             G
Did it really hold a rifle
       Am          Bm   Em
In the past years, fast years
Am     Am/G    D/F#
Before the word began

[Chorus 3]
Em            Emmaj7           
Sleeping in a twilight that is 
Em7               A7
red and white and blue
C                G         
The Dodo and the Dinosaur are 
    Am   D     G
waiting for you
G C x2
