Broken Hymns tab by Dropkick Murphys

Guitar Tab

I saw only one chords for this song but it was not in correct order.
So I made this. It is my first work and done by ear. So will be glad
if you send me any correction or anything.

If you think that some chords don't belong there try listen to the song very
carfully and you might hear them. Or just skip them.
Enjoy!

Now the fog and smoke is lifting
         [ch]D[/ch]             [ch]A[/ch]
From the fallen row on row

Jimmy left home in April
             [ch]D[/ch]           [ch]A[/ch]
That was one year to the day
 [ch]D[/ch]
Writes his mother back home in Brighton
       [ch]D[/ch]                 [ch]A[/ch]
But he ain't got much to say
         [ch]G[/ch]                   [ch]D[/ch]
He's forgotten what his town looks like
    [ch]A[/ch]        [ch]G[/ch]            [ch]A[/ch]        [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch]

He dreams of the blue Atlantic
   [ch]A[/ch]     [ch]D[/ch]         [ch]G[/ch]   [ch]D[/ch]   [ch]A[/ch]
To once again be homeward bound

Homeward bound
           [ch]D[/ch]
Though the road was long and winding
[ch]A[/ch]    [ch]D[/ch]          [ch]G[/ch]  [ch]D[/ch]     [ch]A[/ch]
Many snares lay in their path
    [ch]D[/ch]
But their struggle they saw as righteous

Chorus:
         [ch]G[/ch]                [ch]D[/ch]
Now the battle hymns are playing
 [ch]A[/ch]        [ch]G[/ch]             [ch]A[/ch]     [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch]
Report of shots not far ways
   [ch]G[/ch]                      [ch]D[/ch]       [ch]A[/ch]
No prayer, no promise, no hand of God
                 [ch]D[/ch]          [ch]G[/ch]  [ch]D[/ch]  [ch]A[/ch]
Could save their souls that April day
           [ch]D[/ch]
Tell their wives that they fought bravely
[ch]A[/ch]       [ch]D[/ch]        [ch]G[/ch]  [ch]D[/ch]     [ch]A[/ch]
As they lay them in their graves


       [ch]D[/ch]
As the train pulled in the station
[ch]A[/ch]       [ch]D[/ch]                  [ch]A[/ch]
And the families gathered 'round
          [ch]D[/ch]
You could hear the first car echo
[ch]A[/ch]      [ch]D[/ch]     [ch]G[/ch]    [ch]D[/ch]    [ch]A[/ch]
With a loud triumphant sound
        [ch]D[/ch]
But the last car it was silent
[ch]A[/ch]             [ch]D[/ch]                       [ch]A[/ch]
They listened close but they couldn't hear
       [ch]D[/ch]
It was laden down with coffins
[ch]A[/ch]           [ch]D[/ch]         [ch]G[/ch]    [ch]D[/ch]   [ch]A[/ch]
That didn't speak and couldn't cheer
