school adventures
D
That magic world that lived
Asus4
in black and white
A
You turned eighteen and
enlisted in the Air Force
D

To fly horser gliders over enemy lines
Esus4
You never lost your wide
-eyed joy of flying

And Hitler took that bullet just in time

The expectations placed you at the ledger

was nev er meant to be
Esus4
You weathered Grandad's
English aspirations
D
Asus4
And he set you sail across the Irish Sea
D
A
You always had your chin up to the sky
Bm
Stood up straight with self
-respect and pride
You looked every single
D
But the hardest thing you ever
A
Asus4
did was die
you were more than just a nephew
she never bore
Esus4
You stepped into the
paper mill at Swiftbrook
D
In your coat and tie you walked
the factory floor
Asus4
A
And when you went to Dr.
Duckdale's with a toothache
D
You left there with a filling and a pride
Esus4
I love that photo on
the steps of Christchurch

GKV with Joan Margaret by his side

You always had your chin up to the sky
Bm
Stood up straight with self
-respect and pride
You looked every single

But the hardest thing you ever
A
Asus4
did was die
Irish family castle
D
Until the millbar sent you on your way
Esus4
You bravely sailed the
six of us to safety
into Port Phillip Bay
Esus4
A
You were forty when
you set foot in Australia
D
Resourceful and relentless
and near broke
Esus4
We faced hardship like that
D
Packed it out by hand and
sent it up in smoke
You wore his head,
A
your chin up to the sky
Bm
Stood up straight with self
-respect and pride
A
Looked every single challenge in the eye
D
The hardest thing you ever did
A

was die

D
Bm
An ugly early whiff of Waterloo
D
E
Esus4
Your life began the spiral into helpless
was nothing you could do
A
All the finest stories have a champion
D
To step in when the darkest hour has come
A
E
But the Saviour came
A
and bore you safely over
E
D
The hardest thing
you both had ever done
A
You always had your chin up to the sky
D
Stood up straight with self
You looked every single
D
But the hardest thing you ever did was die
You looked every single
But the hardest thing you ever did was die
