Em7 Deep in the fi Em eld a Gmaj7 lone soldier stands
With m Em7 ud on his b Em oot and C blood on his hands
They Em7 left him behi Em nd to Gmaj7 bury the dead
And to C say a few words on behalf of the leadership D Em
Em Pardon me, boys if I D sleep off my pack
And Em sit for a Em7 while with C you
I'd G like to explain why B7 you fine young men had to be Em blown a Em7 part
To C defend this mud hole
Now G our country, boys though it's B7 quite far away
Found itself Em jeopard Em7 ized, en C dangered, boys
By G these very gooks who B7 lie here beside you
Em Forever Em7 near, fo C rever
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
