[Verse]
Am                                           G
  You'll take my life but I'll take yours too
Am                                               G
  You'll fire your musket but I'll run you through
F                                           G
  So when you're waiting for the next attack
Am                                          G
  You'd better stand there's no turning back.

Am                                           G
  The Bugle sounds and the charge begins
Am                                           G
  But on this battlefield no one wins
F                                            G
  The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
Am
  As I plunge on into certain death.

Ohhhhhhhh

[Verse]
Am                                              G
   The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
Am                                       G
   The mighty roar of the Russian guns
F                                       G
   And as we race towards the human wall
Am                                       G
   The screams of pain as my comrades fall.

Am                                       G
  We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
Am                                       G
  And the Russians fire another round
F                                     G
  We get so near yet so far away
Am
  We won't live to fight another day.

Ohhhhhhhh

[Verse]
Am                                       G
  We get so close near enough to fight
Am                                       G
  When a Russian gets me in his sights
F                                          G
  He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
Am                                       G
  A burst of rounds take my horse below.

Am                                       G
  And as I lay there gazing at the sky
Am                                       G
  My body's numb and my throat is dry
F                                      G
  And as I lay forgotten and alone
Am
  Without a tear I draw my parting groan.


[Chorus]
G      Am
Ohhhhhhhh
G      Am G
Ohhhhhhhh
