SONG: SOLDIER ARTIST: PROCOL HARUM TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: [email protected] INTRO: F Bb F Bb F Bb F Bb VERSE:
F             Am
  The sky has no end tonight

Bb                       C
 Clear view beyond the stars

F                 Am
  Daylight in the early dawn

Bb                        C
  There's no-one left unscarred

Dm               Am
  Sand is drying up the tears

 Bb                          C
Burnt shells soaking up the sun

              F
The generals laughing 

         Bb
With no fear

               F           Bb  F
Because their work is done
VERSE:
 F          Am 
Liquid gold was in their sights

Bb                       C
Paid with blood by infantry

F                Am
  Giant statues ripped and torn

Bb                         C
All engineered so brilliantly

Dm                    Am
  Back home it's the Wild West

Bb                          C
Children sleeping in their beds

       F
Grown men 

                 Bb
That passed the test

                    F   Bb
Now free to go and wed
CHORUS:
 F                    Bb
I'm through with the fighting 

         F      A       Dm
All the terror and the pain

               F
I've seen the lightning

          Bb
Felt the thunder 

         C   C
And the rain

 F                      Bb     
The silver birds come screaming

           F           A          Dm
Painting blood right through the skies

         Bb
Still I worry, 

       C
And I wonder

        F   Bb  F  Bb  F
Wonder why
VERSE:
 F                Am
They tell us it's O-K to kill

Bb                            C
  They're just vermin in the sand

F                   Am
  Don't worry 'bout the blood you spill

           Bb                C
You'll be forgiven by God's hand

Dm               Am
  Images etched behind their eyes

Bb                  C
  Will never fade away

  F                          Bb
Eternal buildings turned to dust

             F   Bb
In just one day
CHORUS:
 F                    Bb
I'm through with the fighting 

         F      A       Dm
All the terror and the pain

               F
I've seen the lightning

          Bb
Felt the thunder 

         C   C
And the rain

 F                      Bb     
The silver birds come screaming

           F           A          Dm
Painting blood right through the skies

         Bb
Still I worry, 

       C
And I wonder

        F   Bb  F  Bb  
Wonder why
CHORUS:
 F                    Bb
I'm through with the fighting 

         F      A       Dm
All the terror and the pain

               F
I've seen the lightning

Felt the thunder 

         C   C
And the rain

     F                  Bb     
The silver birds come screaming

           F           A          Dm
Painting blood right through the skies

         Bb
Still I worry, 

       C
And I wonder

        F   Bb  
Wonder why
