F#                  B9              F#          B9    F# B9 F# B9
For our King and our country and the promise of glory
             F#           B9           F#           B9       F# B9 F# B9
We came from Kingston and Brighton to fight on the front line

     F#            B9        F#            B9    F# B9 F# B9
Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities
     F#           B9        F#          B9      F# B9 F# B9
Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches

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

The sky turned to grey as we went into battle
       F#        B9     F#             B9     F# B9 F# B9
On the fields of Europe young men were fallin'

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

    F#           B9     F# B9
The guns will be silent
      F#         B9  F# B9
On Remembrance Day
         F#         B9       F# B9
There'll be no more fighting

By October of '18 Cambrai had fallen
         F#           B9       F#        B9     F# B9 F# B9
Soon the war would be over and we'd be returnin'

Ebm                       E
Don't forget me while I'm gone far away
Ebm                            C#
Well it won't be long 'til I'm back there in your arms again
