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)
