1ST VERSE:
C#m We were the children of '45 C#m Loaded like pistols and taught how to die BAC#m We looked the enemy straight in the eye (And never surrendered) C#m Through trenches dug in the back of my mind C#m I go over the top time after time BAC#m Me and the ones we left behind (Faces I'll always remember)
CHORUS:
E Now there's no fight left within me DF#mC#m But the writing of this wrong C#mBA As nations we're divided, but as people we are one AEB Like brothers in blood, it seems that we've been C#m Too long a soldier
EBC#m
2ND VERSE:
C#m In the city of monuments C#m Among the flags of all governments BAC#m The order of battle is written in the shadows of a hard black line C#m Where people cry for a nation's scars C#m And heroes sleep beneath a blanket of stars BAC#m Too young to die, but never too old to play the General's game
CHORUS:
E Now there's no life left within them DF#mC#m But the memory lingers on C#mBA As nations we're divided, but as people we are one AEB For brothers in blood we sing that we've been C#m Too long a soldier
BRIDGE:

BE Eternal flames blow in the wind, EAB I've been too long a soldier BE Captain of the Guard, I'm coming in EAB Too long, too long a soldier F#mA I've seen so much worth dying for F#mAC#m So little worth killing over
BC#m Hey
BREAK:

BRIDGE:
BE Eternal flames blow in the wind, EAB I've been too long a soldier BE Captain of the Guard, I'm coming in EAB Too long, too long a soldier F#mA I've seen so much worth dying for F#mA So little worth killing over
BE Soldiers gone before me EAB I will surely fade away BE My eyes have seen the glory, and the suffering and the pain EAB I've been too long a soldier EAB Too long, too long a soldier EAB I've been too long a soldier
C#mE
BC#m (Too long a soldier) C#mE Eternal flames blow in the wind BC#m (Too long a soldier) C#mE My eyes have seen the glory of BC#m (Too long a soldier) C#mEBC#m Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light C#mEBBC#m Oooh, ooh, ooh C#mEBBC#m Oooh, ooh, ooh...
