Pink Floyd - Matilda Mother: chords

      Bsus4 Asus2     G6        F#7sus4
There was a king who ruled the land
    Bsus4 Asus2   G6    F#7sus4
His Maj-es-ty was in command
     Bsus4  Asus2     G6     F#7sus4
With silver eyes the scarlet eagle
Bsus4    Asus2  G6     F#7sus4
showered silver on the people.

Chorus:
G  D A       G    D  E
oh, mother, tell me more.

F#m
Why’d'ya have to leave me there
Hanging in my infant air
 B
Waiting?
F#m
You only have to read the lines
                                        E  G
They’re scribbly black and everything shines

Across the stream with wooden shoes
With bells to tell the king the news
a thousand misty riders climb up
Higher once upon a time

 G    D         A
Wondering and dreaming.
     G          D         E
The words have different meanings,
 A     G   E
Yes, they did.

For all the time spent in that room
The doll’s house, darkness, old perfume
And fairy stories held me high
On clouds of sunlight floating by

Chorus:
G  D A       G    D  E
oh, mother, tell me more.
 A    G  E
Tell me more.
