eechlay Chords for The Green Fields of France/No Mans (3) RE: Chords for The Green Fields of France/No Mans 26 May 06

This is what I play, key is D...

    D                     G          Em
Well, how do you do, Private William Mc-Bride
       A                      D             A
Do you mind if I sit here, down by your graveside
         D                      G
And I'll rest for a while in the warm summer sun
          A                         G          D
I've been walking all day; Lord, and I'm nearly done
                                     Em
And I see by your gravestone, you were only nine-teen
         A7                           D            A
When you joined the glorious fallen in nineteen sixteen
       D                        Em
Well I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean
   A                      G          D
Or Willie Mc-Bride, was it slow and obscene


CHORUS:
         A                            G             D
Did they beat the drum slowly, did they sound the fife lowly
       A                           G          D
Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down
       G                           A
Did the bugles play The Last Post in chorus
       D             G             A   D
Did the pipes play The Flowers Of The Forest
