Frontline by the Newcranes. A very energetic Anglo-Ukranian folk rock group
from the East Midlands, active in the early 90's. The recording of this song on
the Frontline EP features an a-cappella intro in Russian (Or is it Ukranian?) not
represented here.
I have however tried my best to reproduce the chords for the mandolin / accordion
instrumental breaks. Have fun!!
Am
So many people calling,
Am
Not listening to the warning,
G
Lost in their problems,
G7 Am
Not hungry for solutions,
C E E7 Am
I wanna burn out, not fade awaaaaaaaaay, (ho!)
Am
There’s plenty people falling,
The realisation’s dawning,
G G7
Hiding in misery,
Am
And angry in confusion,
C E E7 Am
And running from behind to the front liiiiiiine, (ho!)
(Mandolin solo!)
G Am
G Am
Dm
Another death, another birth,
Am
Another poison in the earth,
This is the frontline,
Dm
Major countries deal the dirt,
Now nature’s in reverse,
E
It’s always worse than before,
E7
They say there’ll be another war!
