      A         B         A
She slept on an iron bed lived through
     D   A       B A D
the war for what?

Butterflies round the fire smiled
Smiled until she's robbed of all she's got

Chorus:
A  Bm       C#m            D
I heard the innocent got shot today
Grandma died on poppy day
I heard the dress downed got turned away
All died, died on poppy day

Fancy dress in a dress down town
Happy halloween
Door breaks open lost and walked in
Killing the happy scene

Chorus:
I heard the innocent got shot today
Grandma died on poppy day
I heard the dress downed got turned away
Old dad died on poppy day

I heard the innocent got shot today
Grandma died on poppy day
I heard the dress downed got turned away
Old dad died on poppy day
On poppy day
