Keep The Home Fires Burning Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The[G]y were summoned
from the hillside.
They were called in from the glen.
[D]And the coun[G]try found them ready
at the star[D]ring [G]call for men.
Let no tears add to their hardships
as the soldiers pass along,
[A]and al[G]though your heart is [Em]breaking,
[G]make it [D]sing [A]this [G]teary [A]song.[D][G][D]
[G]Keep the home fires burn[D]ing
[Em]while your [G]hearts are yearn[B]ing,
[C]though your lads are [G]far away
they [A]dream of [D]home.
[G]There's a silver lining
[D]through [Em]the dark[G] cloudy lining.[B]
[C]Turn the dark cloudy [G]side out
till the boys [D]come [G]home.[C][G]
Overseas there came a pleading,
help a nation in distress,
and we [D]gave our [G]glorious laddies
Son of [D]Addis to [A]no [G]less

[Verse 2]
[G]
For no God and son of freedom

[Verse 3]
to a tyrant's yoke he'll bend
[A]And [G]a noble heart must ans[Em]wer
[G]to the [D]sac[A]red [G]call [A]of a [G]friend
[D]Keep

[Verse 4]
[G]the home fires burning[D]
[Em]while your [G]hearts are yearn[B]ing.
[C]Though your laps are [G]far away,
they [A]dream of [D]home.
[G]There's a silver lin[D]ing
[Em]through the [G]dark, cloudy lin[B]ing.
[C]Turn the dark cloud [G]in side out,
till the boys [D]come [G]home.

[Outro 1]
