E D
youll take my life but ill take yours too
E D
youll fire your musket but ill run you through
C D
so when youre waiting for the next attack
E D
youd better stand theres no turning back .
E D
the bugle sounds and the charge begins
E D
but on this battlefield no one wins
C D
the smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
E D
as i plunge on into certain death .

xoh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
E D
the horse he sweats with fear we break to run

E D
the mighty roar of the russian guns
C D
and as we race towards the human wall
E D
the screams of pain as my comrades fall
E D
we hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
E D
and the russians fire another round
C D
we get so near yet so far away
E D
we wont live to fight another day .
E D
we get so close near enough to fight
E D
when a russian gets me in his sights
C D
he pulls the trigger and i feel the blow
E D
a burst of rounds take my horse below .
E D
and as i lay there gazing at the sky
E D
my bodys numb and my throat is dry
C D
and as i lay forgotten and alone
E D
without a tear i draw my parting groan
D E
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
