intro: A, A, A, A.
Verse:
[A]16 years old when I [E]went the war,
To [D]fight for a land fit for [A]heroes,
[A]God on my side, and a[E] gun in my hand,
[D]Chasing my days down to [A]zero,
[A]And I marched and I fought and I[E] bled and I died,
And I [D]never did get any [A]older,
[A]But I knew at the time that a [E]year in the line,
D A A, A, A,
Is a long enough life for a soldier,
We [A]all volunteered, and we wr[E]ote down our names,
And we a[D]dded two years to our [A]ages,
[A]Eager for life and a[E]head of the game,
[D]Ready for history's [A]pages,
[A]And we brawled and we fought and we [E]whored 'til we stood,
[D]Ten thousand shoulder to sho[A]ulder,
[A]A thirst for the Hun, we were fo[E]od for the gun,
D A A,
And that's what you are when you're soldiers,
A,E,D,A, A,E,D,A A,A,A.
[A]I heard my friend cry, and he [E]sank to his knees,
Coughing [D]blood as he screamed for his[A] mother,
And [A]I fell by his side, and t[E]hat's how we died,
[D]Clinging like kids to each o[A]ther,
And I [A]lay in the mud and the [E]guts and the blood,
And I [D]wept as his body grew c[A]older,
And I [A]called for my mother and [E]she never came,
Though it [G]wasn't my fault and I [D]wasn't to blame,
The d[A]ay not half over and [E]ten thousand slain,
And n[G]ow there's nobody rem[D]embers our names,
[D]And that's how it is for a s[A]oldier.
Here you go, GREAT SONG...
