Fields Of Verdun Chords

[Intro]
A
Dm Bb C Am
Bb Dm E A
 
[Verse]
       Dm
As the drum roll started on that day
        Bb
Heard a hundred miles away
  C
A million shells were fired
        A
And the green fields turned to grey
 
       Dm
The bombardment lasted all day long
        Bb
Yet the forts were standing strong
C
Heavily defended
        Bb                   
Now the trap has been sprung 
        F          C
and the battle has begun
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm              A
   Descend into darkness
Gm                     Bb             C
   Three-hundred-three days below the sun
 
[Chorus]
             Dm       Bb
Fields of Verdun
        C            Am
And the battle has begun
           Bb
Nowhere to run
           Dm
Father and son
            Gm
Fall one by one
          A
Under the gun
 
            Dm                Bb
Thy will be done (thy will be done)
        C               Am
And the judgement has begun
           Bb
Nowhere to run
           Dm
Father and son
            E
Fall one by one
             A
Fields of Verdun
 
[Verse]
         Dm
Though a million shells have scarred the land
       Bb
No one has the upper hand
         C
From the ground above to trenches
          A
Where the soldiers make their stand
 
       Dm
As the trenches slowly turn to mud
         Bb
And then quickly start to flood
       C
Death awaits in every corner
        Bb              
As they die in the mud, 

         F             C
fill the trenches with blood
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm              A
   Descend into darkness
Gm                     Bb             C
   Three-hundred-three days below the sun
 
[Chorus]
             Dm       Bb
Fields of Verdun
        C            Am
And the battle has begun
           Bb
Nowhere to run
           Dm
Father and son
            Gm
Fall one by one
          A
Under the gun
 
            Dm                Bb
Thy will be done (thy will be done)
        C               Am
And the judgement has begun
           Bb
Nowhere to run
           Dm
Father and son
            E
Fall one by one
             A
Fields of Verdun
 
[Instrumental]
Dm
 
[Bridge]
Dm           Bb
Fields of execution
          C                  Dm
Turned to wasteland from the grass
Bb               Dm
Thou shalt go no further
       F                     A
It was said: "They shall not pass!"
 
    Bb          F        
The spirit of resistance 

        C              F
and the madness of the war
 
 
So...
Bb
Go ahead!
Am
Face the led!
Gm
Join the dead!
F
Though you die!
E
Where you lie!
E            A
Never asking why!
