Intro: E D C D 3x
E D
You'll take my life but i'll take yours too
E D
You'll fire your musket but i'll run you through
C D
So when you're waiting for the next attack
E D
You'd better stand there's no turning back.
E D
The bugle sounds and the charge begins
E D
But on this battlefield no one wins
C D
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
E D
As i plunge on into certain death.
D E
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
D E (E D C D)2x
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
E D
The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
E D
The mighty roar of the russian guns
C D
And as we race towards the human wall
E D
The screams of pain as my comrades fall

E D
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
E D
And the russians fire another round
C D
We get so near yet so far away
E D
We won't live to fight another day.
E D
We get so close near enough to fight
E D
When a russian gets me in his sights
C D
He pulls the trigger and i feel the blow
E D
A burst of rounds take my horse below.
E D
And as i lay there gazing at the sky
E D
My body's numb and my throat is dry
C D
And as i lay forgotten and alone
E D
Without a tear i draw my parting groan
D E
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
D E (E D C D)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
