^Em You'll take my life but I'll take yours too^D ^Em You'll fire your musket but I'll run you throug^Dh ^C So when you're waiting for the next attack^D ^Em You'd better stand there's no turning back^D.

^Em The Bugle sounds and the charge begins ^D ^Em But on this battlefield no one wins ^D ^C The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath ^D ^Em As I plunge on into certain death.

^Em The horse he sweats with fear we break to run^D ^Em The mighty roar of the Russian guns ^D ^C And as we race towards the human wall^D ^Em The screams of pain as my comrades fal^Dl.

^Em We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground^D ^Em And the Russians fire another round ^D ^C We get so near yet so far away ^D ^Em We won't live to fight another day.

[Chorus]

^Em We get so close near enough to fight ^D ^Em When a Russian gets me in his sights ^D ^C He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow ^D ^Em A burst of rounds take my horse below. ^D

^Em And as I lay there gazing at the sky ^D ^Em My body's numb and my throat is dry ^D ^C And as I lay forgotten and alone ^D ^Em Without a tear I draw my parting groan.

[Chorus]

^DOhhhhhh^Emhh ^DOhhhhhh^Emhh ^D
