Berikut lirik dan chord lagu "1939 Returning" dari Peter Doherty:

Bm              C#7
Captured clandestine
F#m           C#m
Crawled into the lights
D           A                 G
He knew he was in for a shoeing
Em                 F#
Just wasn't to be his night

Bm                  C#7
Dragged out of the frozen Rhine
F#m                      C#m
For the Motherland and the Third Reich
D                A            G
A toeing's as good as a shoeing
Em               F#
When it's not to be your night

Chorus:

             Bm
Tread carefully, so carefully
                   A#
Upon the drifting ice
               D#maj7
Caught behind enemy lines
F               F#
In 1939

Bm                A#
For Germany he sacrificed his life
  D#maj7
Caught behind enemy lines
F            F#
There in 1939

Verse:

Bm                 C#7
Kids knee-deep in rubble
F#m          C#m
London urchins grey with dust
D             A               G
Packed off ours in evacuations
                        Em
To farmers' wives

Green and pleasant lives
                  F#m
Far from the doodlebugs
Bm                 C#7
Nanna Doll she still remembers
F#m                       C#m
Leaving town in worn-out shoes
D                          A            G
Now she's back out west in sheltered accommodations
Em                                   F#m
Homes for the old where pills aren't the only blues

Chorus:

              Bm
Tread carefully, so carefully
                         A#m
Upon the drifting ice
                  D#maj7
Staring blank into the TV guide
F           F#
In 2009

Bm                      A#
How it's hurting me, I've only seen her twice
              D#maj7
Since you went west for the second time
F                   F#
Since 1939
