D
I was falling dead in battle
D G D
Must have been Tuesday, I don't know the date
Bm G
I gave everything everyone asked for
G D
But I'll say where I'll be laid
D7 G
The many dead of my comrades
G D
All look the same in this place
D G D
Won't you bury me far from my uniform
D A D
So God might remember my face
Bridge:
D G D
Just bury me far from my uniform
G D
From the iron cross medal I would've worn
G D
From the statues that sisters and widows mourn
G D
From the newspaper clippings in micro-form
G D
From Geneva, the Hague, and Nuremberg
D G
From the sex of this world that I'll no longer taste
D G
Won't you bury me far from my uniform
D A D
So God might remember my face
