[Verse 1]
Hear the Emsound of a machinegun
Hear it D/F#echo in the night
GMortals firing rains the scene
D/F#Scars the fields
That once were green
It's a Emstalemate at the frontline
Where the D/F#soldiers rest in mud
GRoads and houses
All is gone
D/F#There is no glory to be won
[Verse 2]
Know that Emmany men will suffer
Know that D/F#many men will die
GHalf a million lives at stake
D/F#Ask the fields of Passchendaele
[Bridge]
And as the Cnight falls the Dgeneral calls
And the Gbattle D/F#carries Emon D and on
CHow long?
What is the Dpurpose of it Ball
CWhat's the price of a Dmile?
[Chorus]
EmThousands of feet march to the beat
It's an Bmarmy on the march
G Long way from home
BmPaying the price in young men's lives D
EmThousands of feet march to the beat
It's an Bmarmy in despair
G Kneedeep in mud
BmStuck in the trench with no way out D Em
[Verse 3]
EmThousands of machineguns
Kept on D/F#firing through the night
GMortars blazed and wrecked the scene
D/F#Guns in the fields that once were green
Still a Emdeadlock at the frontline
Where the D/F#soldiers die in mud
GRoads and houses since long gone
D/F#Still no glory has been won
[Verse 4]
Know that Emmany men has suffered
Know that D/F#many men has died
GSix miles of ground has been won
D/F#Half a million men are gone
[Bridge]
And as the Cmen crawled the Dgeneral called
And the Gkilling D/F#carried Emon D and on
CHow long?
What's the Dpurpose of it Ball?
CWhat's the price of a Dmile?
