Intro
[see tab below]
Deep in the field
A lone soldier stands
With mud on his boots
And blood on his hands
They left him behind
To bu--ry the dead
[see tab for extra voicings] / /
And to say a few words on behalf of the leadership [see tab]
Pardon me, boys if I slip off my pack
/sus2
And sit for a while with you
I'd like to explain why you fine young men had to be blown apart
To defend this mud hole
Now our country, boys though it's quite far away
Found itself jeopardized, endangered, boys
By these very gooks who lie here beside you
Fore---ver near, fore-------ver
We'd like to express our deep admiration
/sus2
For your courage under fire
And your willingness to die for your country, boys
We won't forget ...
We won't forget (siren)
