Capo 2
D...
D MajorD
I was falling dead in battle
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Must have been Tuesday, I don't know the date
B minorBm G+G
I gave everything everyone asked for
G+G D MajorD
But I'll say where I'll be laid
D7D7 G+G
The many dead of my comrades
G+G D MajorD
All look the same in this place
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Won't you bury me far from my uniform
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
So God might remember my face
Bridge:
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Just bury me far from my uniform
G+G D MajorD
From the iron cross medal I would've worn
G+G D MajorD
From the statues that sisters and widows mourn
G+G D MajorD
From the newspaper clippings in micro-form
G+G D MajorD
From Geneva, the Hague, and Nuremberg
D MajorD G+G
From the sex of this world that I'll no longer taste
D MajorD G+G
Won't you bury me far from my uniform
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
So God might remember my face
