_ _ _ [G] _ We met [Dm] as soulmates [Gm] on [C] Parasite We [Dm] left as inmates [G] from [C] Anacite
And we [Em] were sharp, [Am] as [Em] sharp as knives [A] And [Dm] we were so gung-ho to lay down [G] our lives
[Am] _ [G] We [Dm] came in spastic, [G] like [C] tameless horses We [Dm] left in plastic, [G] as [C] numbered corpses
And [Em] we learned fast [Am] to [Em] travel light [Am] Our [Dm] arms were heavy but our bellies [Bb] were [C] tight
[Bb] _ [E] _ [G] _
[C] _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[G] We [A] had [Dm] no home front, we had [C] no soft slope They [Dm] sent us playboy, [G] they [C] gave us barcode
We [Em] dug in deep [Am] and [Em] shot on sight [Am] And [Dm] prayed to Jesus Christ with all of [G] our might
[Am] [G] We [Dm] had no cameras [G] to [C] shoot the landscape We [F] passed the hashpoint [G]
[C] and played our doorsteps
And it [E] was not [Am] _
so dark [Em] at night [Am] And [Dm] we held on to each other, [F] like brother to brother
[Bb] We promised [F] our mothers [Gm] we'd write
[F] When we would [Bb] all go down [C] together He [F] said we'd all [Bb] go [B] down [C] together
[Bb] Yes [F] we would all [Bb] go [F]
[G] down together
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[Dm] Remember Charlie, _ [G] [C] remember Baker They [Dm] left their childhood [G] on [C] every acre
And [B] who was [E] right, [Am] and who was [Em] right [Am] It [Dm] didn't matter, [F] I [C] think of [Bb] the fights _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ [A] We [G]
[C] held the day _ [D] [E] in the palm _ [Dm]
[E] of [D] our hand
[Am] _ [E] _ [Am] They _ [G]
[C] ruled the night _ [D] [E] And the night _ [F]
[G] seemed to last as long [F] as six weeks
[Dm] On [C] Paris Island, [Em] we [F] held the coastline [G] They [C] held the highland
And [B] they were [E] sharp, [Am] as [Dm] sharp as [E] knives
[Am] They [Dm] heard the hum of our motors [F] They counted the rotors
[Bb] And waited for [F] us to [Gm] arrive
When we [F] would all [Bb] go down [C] together He [F] said [Am] we'd [Bb] all go [B] [C] down together
[Bb] _ [F] Yes we would [Am] [Bb] all go [F] [G] down together
