Song For The Dead
Intro: Am7 Am (2X)
Am7Deep in the fiAmeld a Cmaj7lone soldier stands
With mAm7ud on his bAmoot and Fblood on his hands
They Am7left him behiAmnd to Cmaj7bury the dead
And to Fsay a few words on behalf of the leadership C Am
AmPardon me, boys if I Csleep off my pack
And Amsit for a Am7while with Fyou
I'd Clike to explain why E7you fine young men had to be Amblown aAm7part
To Fdefend this mud hole
Now Cour country, boys though it's E7quite far away
Found itself AmjeopardAm7ized, enFdangered, boys
By Cthese very gooks who E7lie here beside you
AmForever Am7near, foFrever
We'd like to express our deep admiration
For your courage under fire and your willingness to die
For your country, boys we won't forget
We won't forget
