Introduction:
E5 D5
You'll take my life but i'll take yours too
E5 D5
You'll fire your musket but i'll run you through
C5 D5
So when you're waiting for the next attack
E5 D5
You'd better stand there's no turning back.
E5 D5
The bugle sounds and the charge begins
E5 D5
But on this battlefield no one wins
C5 D5
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
E5 D5
As i plunge on into certain death.
D5 E5
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
D5 E5
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
E5 D5
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
E5 D5
The mighty roar of the russian guns
C5 D5
And as we race towards the human wall
E5 D5
The screams of pain as my comrades fall
E5 D5
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
E5 D5
And the russians fire another round
C5 D5
We get so near yet so far away
E5 D5
We won't live to fight another day.
E5 D5
We get so close near enough to fight
E5 D5
When a russian gets me in his sights
C5 D5
He pulls the trigger and i feel the blow
E5 D5
A burst of rounds take my horse below.
E5 D5
And as i lay there gazing at the sky
E5 D5
My body's numb and my throat is dry
C5 D5
And as i lay forgotten and alone
E5 D5
Without a tear i draw my parting groan
D5 E5
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
D5 E5
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
