Paschendale Acoustic by Iron Maiden

Chords with lyrics

to sound much like the classic Pachendale on Dance of Death, but I think the tune is
 This is my first submission, so bear with me!

Pachendale (Iron Maiden)

Intro (2x): Chord diagramE minorEm Chord diagramB minorBm Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramE minorEm Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramC majorC

Chord diagramE minorEm  Chord diagramB minorBm    Chord diagramD MajorD    Chord diagramC majorC
In a foreign field he lay
Chord diagramA minorAm  Chord diagramE minorEm    Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramC majorC
lonely soldier unknown grave
on his dying words he prays
tell the world of Paschendale

Relive all that he's been through
last communion of his soul
rust your bullets with his tears
let me tell you 'bout his years

Chord diagramE minorEm       Chord diagramB minorBm
Laying low in a blood filled trench
Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramC majorC
killing time 'til my very own death
Chord diagramE minorEm            Chord diagramB minorBm
on my face I can feel the falling rain
Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramD MajorD
never see my friends again
in the smoke in the mud and lead
the smell of fear and the feeling of dread
soon be time to go over the wall
rapid fire and the end of us all

Chord diagramE minorEm    Chord diagramB minorBm     Chord diagramD MajorD      Chord diagramC majorC
Whistles, shouts and more gun-fire
Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramE minorEm       Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramC majorC
lifeless bodies hang on barbed wire
battlefield nothing but a bloody tomb
be reunited with my dead friends soon
many soldiers eighteen years
drowned in mud, no more tears
surely a war no one can win
killing time about to begin

Chord diagramE minorEm    Chord diagramB minorBm       Chord diagramC majorC   Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramC majorC   Chord diagramG+G
Home, far away. From the war, a chance to live again
Home, far away. But the war, no chance to live again

Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramD MajorD      Chord diagramC majorC
The bodies of ours and our foes
Chord diagramA minorAm     Chord diagramD MajorD    Chord diagramC majorC
the sea of death it overflows
Chord diagramA minorAm     Chord diagramD MajorD       Chord diagramC majorC
in no-man's land God only knows
Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramD MajorD    Chord diagramE minorEm
into jaws of death we go...

Chord diagramE minorEm   Chord diagramB minorBm    Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramC majorC
Crucified as if on a cross
Chord diagramA minorAm   Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramD MajorD      Chord diagramC majorC
allied troops, they mourn their loss
German war propaganda machine
such before has never been seen
swear I heard the angels cry
pray to God no more may die
so that people know the truth
tell the tale of Paschendale

Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramB minorBm
Cruelty has a human heart
Chord diagramD MajorD            Chord diagramC majorC
every man does play his part
Chord diagramE minorEm        Chord diagramB minorBm
tell them of the men we kill
Chord diagramD MajorD         Chord diagramC majorC
the human heart is hungry still

I stand my ground for the very last time
gun is ready as I stand in line
nervous wait for the whistle to blow
rush of blood and over we go...

Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramD MajorD
Blood is falling like the rain
Chord diagramA minorAm         Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramC majorC
its crimson cloak unveils again
Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD
the sound of guns can't hide their shame
Chord diagramA minorAm    Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramC majorC
and so we die in Paschendale

Dodging shrapnel and barbed wire
running straight at canon fire
running blind as I hold my breath
say a prayer symphony of death
as we charge the enemy lines
a burst of fire and we go down
I choke I cry but no one hears
feel the blood go down my throat

Home, far away. From the war, a chance to live again
Home, far away. But the war, no chance to live again
Home, far away. From the war, a chance to live again
Home, far away. But the war, no chance to live again

See my spirit on the wind
across the lines beyond the hill
friend and foe will meet again
