Children's Crusade  Sting

There was a typo in the last post. The F's should be E's.
Thanks to Akira Nakahara for mentioning that.
Here the corrected Version
Children's Crusade (Sting, The Dream of the Blue Turtles)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[F#m]  
[Bm]Young men and [G]soldiers, [A]nineteen fourt[E]een.
[Bm]Marching through [G]countries [A]they'd never [C]seen
[Bm]Virgins with [G]rifles, a [A]game of char[E]ades
[C]All for a [Bm7]children's crus[A]ade[C] [A] [C]
(same chords)
Pawns in the game are not victims of chance
Strewn on the fields of Belgium and France
Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
[C]All of those [Bm7]young lives be[A]trayed
Chorus:
The [C]children of [G]England would [C]never be [G]slaves
They're t[C]rapped on the [Bm]wire and [Em]dying in [Bb13]waves
The [C]Flower of [G]England face [C]down in the [G]mud
And [C]stained in the [Bm]blood of a [Em]whole gener[Bb13]ation
(chords like verse 1)
Corpulent generals safe behind lines
History's lessons drowned in red wine
Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
All of those young lives betrayed
[C]All for a [Bm7]children's crus[Em]ade
During solo: Em Bm7
Repeat Chorus
(chords like verse 3)
Midnight in Soho nineteen eighty-four
Fixing in door ways, opium slaves
Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
All of those young lives betrayed
All for a children's crusade.
Bb13=6x678x, could be Ebmaj7/Bb=x11333 as well.
