F Dm F Am C Am Dm (x3)
[Verse]
Dm
A short man from Texas
C Dm
A man of the wild
Thrown into combat,
F C
Where bodies lie piled
Dm
Hides his emotions,
His blood is running cold
Just like his victories,
Gm A
His story unfolds
Bb F
Bright, a white light,
Cm
If there'd be,
Gm
Any glory in war
Bb
Let it rest,
A
On men like him
A
Dead men will never come back
[Chorus]
Dm F
Crosses grow on Anzio
C
Where no soldier sleeps
Am Dm
And where hell is six feet deep
That death does wait
F
There's no debate
Am C
So charge and attack
Am Dm
Going to hell and back
Dm
A man of the 15th
C Dm
A man of Can Do
Friends fall around him
F C
And yet he came through
Dm
Let them fall face down
C Dm
If they must die
Making it easier
Gm A
To say goodbye
Bb F
Bright, a white light,
Cm
If there'd be,
Gm
Any glory in war
Bb
Let it rest,
A
On men like him
A
Who went to hell and came back
[Chorus]
Dm F
Crosses grow on Anzio
C
Where no soldier sleeps
Am Dm
And where hell is six feet deep
That death does wait
F
There's no debate
Am C
So charge and attack
Am Dm
Going to hell and back
Bb C
Oh gather 'round me
Dm
And listen while I speak
Bb C Dm
Of a war where hell is six feet deep
Bb C
And all along the shore
Dm F
Where cannons still roar
F Bb
They're haunting my dreams
F C
They're still there when I sleep
