Biografía:
Harvey Andrews (born Harvey John Andrews, May 7, 1943 in Birmingham) is an English singer, songwriter, and poet.
From 1964, Andrews supported his nascent career as a singer/songwriter by working as a schoolteacher, before becoming a full-time professional musician in 1966.
Andrews has produced 15 successful albums singing his own songs, many of which have also been recorded by other artists.
His emotive The Soldier transmits the same quiet desperation of a soldier about to die "in conflict" as Wilfred Owen's Dulce Et Decorum Est

VERSE 1
********
He was first one out of the landing craft
G Am
When the ramp hit the churning sand
He was first one out of the red-cross train
G
To the sound of the big brass band
C G
He was first in line for his demob suit
Am Em
When the war he'd fought was won
Am
Then he settled down, rebuilt his town
G Am
Thought his job was done
-------------------
CHORUS
*******
G Am
Fifty years on, fifty years on
G
He's grown too old, his house is sold
C E
And all his money's gone
Am G
Like him, it's thrown to the nursing home
Am
Fifty years on
-------------------
VERSE 2
********
She ferried fighters through the sky
G Am
She flew the big ones too
There was no job the air force had
G
She felt she couldn't do
C G
From dawn she'd toil with plug and coil
Am Em
Her scent was oily rag
Am
Her mad days and her salad days
G Am
Given to the flag
-------------------
CHORUS
*******
G Am
Fifty years on, fifty years on
G
Her face is bruised, she's been abused
C E
And all her spirit's gone
Am G
He was just a child, but the kids are wild
Am
Fifty years on
-------------------
BRIDGE
*******
G Am
Fifty years on, fifty years gone
F C E
And they've lost a war they could have sworn they'd won
G Am
Fifty years on, fifty years gone
F C E
And the kids say please to the Japanese, can we work for the new Nippon
Am
Fifty years on
-------------------
VERSE 3
********
Yes, the kids are wild and on the street
G Am
Fifty years on
But the courts are mild when they mug and beat
G
Fifty years on
C G
They were youngsters then, they were boys not men
Am Em
Girls who grew too fast
Am
They were our front line, now it's me and mine
G Am
And the old ones come last
-------------------
CHORUS
*******
G Am
Fifty years on, fifty years on
G
They're fighting still, they always will
C E
But with so many gone
Am G
They stand with pride, but someone lied
Am
Fifty years on

Fifty years on, time's passed
