[Intro 1]
[D][A][G][D][Em][A][G][D][Em][A]
[G][D][Em][A]
[G][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
I'm a [A]soldier of [G]fortune
I've [D]come to save [Em]the day
There's a [A]country that's [G]needs me
And [D]an enemy to [Em]slay
[A]All my friends are in [G]uniform
[D]God is [Em]on our side
But I'm [A]leaving my [G]baby back [D]home
[Em][A][G][D][Em][A][G]

[Verse 2]
[D][Em]
As we [A]head for the [G]ocean
Our [D]spirits are [Em]high
"to [A]battle, to [G]glory,
what a [D]lovely way to [Em]die!"
Looking [A]back at [G]the shoreline
[D]Ringing [Em]in my ears
Are the [A]words of my [G]baby
back [D]home[Em]

[Verse 3]
[Em]Where are you [C]going to [Am]so far aw[B]ay
[Em]Your dreams of [C]glory will [Am]soon fade [B]away
[Em]We are so yo[C]ung, s[G]o much in lo[A]ve
[Em]Your country [C]needs you
but [G]I need you m[A]ore
So [G]far away[D]
[Em]Over there
[A][G][D][Em]

[Verse 4]
[A]Out on the fro[G]ntline the
[D]story has [Em]changed
For the [A]glory of [G]battle is the
[D]myth on printed [Em]page
As my [A]friends fall [G]around me
I [D]wonder when [Em]I die
Will they [A]carry my [G]body back [D]home[Em]

[Verse 5]
[Em]What are you [C]searching for [Am]so far aw[B]ay
[Em]Your dreams of [C]glory will [Am]soon fade [B]away
[Em]We are so yo[C]ung, s[G]o much in lo[A]ve
[Em]I'm so a[C]fraid I won't [Am]see you a[B]gain
[Em]Your country [C]needs you
but [G]I need you m[A]ore
So [G]far away[D]
[Em]Over there[A][G][D]
[Em]So far away[A][G][D]
[Em]Over there

[Verse 6]
Where are you [C]going to [Am]so far aw[B]ay
[Em]Your dreams of [C]glory will [Am]soon fade [B]away
[Em]So many li[C]ves wa[G]sted a[A]way
[Em]So many di[C]e ag[G]ain and ag[A]ain
[Em]Some people [C]say that the
[Am]knights are all [B]gone
[Em]Some people [C]say that the
[Am]dragons are [B]dead
But the [Em]dragon lives [C]on
As the [G]spectre [A]of war
And the [Em]killing and [C]slaying
goes [G]on as be[A]fore
Will it [Em]ever [C]end[Am]
[Bm]Oh... [B]will it eve[Em]r end[C][Am][Bm]
Will it [Em]ever [C]en d... ?
