Mother of disaster and sister of our fate
A F#m B
Do you count the tragedies we see?
E C#m B F#m B E/G#
Father of confusion and brother of debate
A B B7 E
Do you recall the sister of Rosemary?
A B E C#m
The doodlebugs were flying and the blitz was at its high
A E A F#m B
Rosemary lay sleeping with her sister only five
E C#m B F#m B E
And no one heard the one that hit, the one that blew the lid
A E B B7 E
Rosemary came out crying but her sister never did
E/G#A B E
And you fly high, and your dreams are all in vain
A E F#m B
One moment you are singing and the next your crying in pain
E C#m B F#m B C#m
But high above the heavens on a host of angels' wings
A E F#m B E
Rosemary's sister will be da - ncing

Her mother cried all that year as many others did
A F#m B
She'd pull through for a moment, now and then
E C#m B F#m B E/G#
And the people down in Bethnel Street in the rubble and the stones
A B B7 E
Swept up the street and started all again
A B E C#m
When tyranny is biting you do your best to try
A E A F#m B
To stifle all your heartache till it's safe again to cry
E C#m B F#m B E/G#
And when at last the darkness clears and the sun comes shining through
A B B7 E
You dust it off and start it all anew
E/G#A B E
And you fly high, and your dreams are all in vain
A E F#m B
One moment you are singing and the next your crying in pain
E C#m B F#m B C#m
But high above the heavens on a host of angels' wings
A E F#m B E
Rosemary's sister will be da - ncing

There's a teacher in the classroom, there's a mother in the hall
A F#m B
The children sit and wait for the bell for home
E C#m B F#m B E/G#
And Rosemary is waiting, she has a child now of her own
A B B7 E
And she's waiting to collect and take her home
A B E C#m
But sometimes in the silence, in the firelight where she sits
A E A F#m B
Her mind goes back to Bethnel Street, to the darkness and the blitz
E C#m B A B C#m
And she knows if there's another one, then the end will be complete,
A B B7 E
Well, I wonder what they'd say in the Bethnel Street
E/G#A B E
And you fly high, and your dreams are all in vain
A E F#m B
One moment you are singing and the next your crying in pain
