[Verse]
AYou'll take my life but I'll take yours too G
AYou'll fire your musket but I'll run you through G
FSo when you're waiting for the next attack G
AYou'd better stand, there's no turning back G
AThe bugle sounds the charge begins G
ABut on this battlefield no one wins G
FThe smell of acrid smoke and horses breath G
AAs I plunge on into certain death
[Chorus]
GOoooooooAh
GOoooooooAh
[Verse]
AThe horse he sweats with fear, we break to run G
AThe mighty roar of the Russian guns G
FAnd as we race towards the human wall G
AThe scream of pain as my comrades fall G
AWe hurdle bodies that lay on the ground G
AAnd the Russians fire another round G
FWe get so near yet so far away G
AWe won't live to fight another day G
[Chorus]
GOoooooooAh
GOoooooooAh
[Verse]
AWe get so close near enough to fight G
AWhen a Russian gets me in his sights G
FHe pulls the trigger and I feel the blow G
AA burst of rounds take my horse below G
AAnd as I lay there gazing at the sky G
AMy body's numb and my throat is dry G
FAnd as I lay forgotten and alone G
AWithout a tear I draw my parting groan G
[Chorus]
GOoooooooAh
GOoooooooAh
