Verse:
F#F#         B9B9       F#F#     B9B9  F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
For our King and our country and the promise of glory
       F#F#      B9B9      F#F#      B9B9    F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
We came from Kingston and Brighton to fight on the front line

   F#F#      B9B9    F#F#      B9B9  F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities
   F#F#      B9B9    F#F#     B9B9   F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches

EbmEbm              E MajorE
We'd face the fighting with a smile - or so we said
EbmEbm            C#C#
If only we had known what danger lay ahead

  F#F#      B9B9     F#F#    B9B9   F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
The sky turned to grey as we went into battle
    F#F#    B9B9   F#F#       B9B9   F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
On the fields of Europe young men were fallin'

EbmEbm            E MajorE
I'll be back for you someday - it won't be long
EbmEbm               C#C#
If I can just hold on 'til this bloody war is over

  F#F#      B9B9   F#F# B9B9
The guns will be silent
   F#F#     B9B9 F#F# B9B9
On Remembrance Day
     F#F#     B9B9    F#F# B9B9
There'll be no more fighting
    F#F#    B9B9 F#F# B9B9
On Remembrance Day

   F#F#    B9B9 F#F#     B9B9  F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
By October of '18 Cambrai had fallen
     F#F#      B9B9    F#F#    B9B9   F#F# B9B9 F#F# B9B9
Soon the war would be over and we'd be returnin'

EbmEbm            E MajorE
Don't forget me while I'm gone far away
