Am C F
Left a port out of New York
G F
Slept for months in British rain
Am C F C
Tore it up down in London town
D F
And they shipped me back out again
C G F C
The preacher said Boys he who is killed tonight
D F
will dine with the Lord in Paradise
C G F C
One boy spoke up, said preacher come on
D F
eat your supper with us
Am C F
Never talk about those first days
G F
Lots of friends left behind
Am C F C
But I made it all the way across France
D F
And I fought at the Maginot line
Am C F
Road a tank into Belgium
G F
Liked them better than the French
Am C F C
Like my daddy, thirty years before
D F
I did my time in a trench
Am C F
Lots of days there's no water
G F
But the liquor kept me warm
Am C F C
The cellars were stocked to their ceilings with booze
D F
So I carried a bottle with my gun
C G F C
The preacher said Boys he who is killed tonight
D F
will dine with the Lord in Paradise
C G F C
One boy spoke up, said preacher come on
D F
eat your supper with us
Am C F
Three times I made sergeant
G F
I'm not that kind of man
Am C F C
And pretty much just as quick as I could
D F
I get busted back to private again
Am C F
Cause taking orders never suited me
G F
Giving them out was much worse
Am C F C
I could not stand to get my friends killed
D F
So I took care of myself first
Am C F
Now I know that don't sound right
G F
Don't think too bad of me
Am C F C
Now it keeps me up nights
D F
What I could have done differently
C G F C
The preacher said Boys he who is killed tonight
D F
will dine with the Lord in Paradise
C G F C
One boy spoke up, said preacher come on
D F
eat your supper with us
C G F C
I'd be no guest at the table of the Lord
D F
His food was not to be mine
C G F C
Cause I cursed His name every chance that I could
D F
And I recon that's why I'm still alive Last updated:
