 I woke in fright, no love no one to save me

 Night after night so lonely lonely baby

 Who is left to fight?

Gm       D   Eb     F
 On the water still my boat violently shaking
Gm        D  Eb       F
 I need another pill another bitter pill to wake me
Gm        D  Eb    F
 Upon the window sill the cat silently quaking
Gm        D
 Who is left to kill?

VERSE THREE:
Gm          D    Eb      F
 The battlefield is crossed, the flag and castle falling
Gm      D   Eb     F
 Is the army lost, command no longer calling
Gm       D  Eb     F
 Into an early frost a few survivors crawling
Gm          D
 Who could know the cost?
