[Intro] A Dm Bb C Am Bb Dm E A [Verse]
       Dm
As the drum roll started on that day

        Bb
Heard a hundred miles away

  C
A million shells were fired

        A
And the green fields turned to grey

       Dm
The bombardment lasted all day long

        Bb
Yet the forts were standing strong

C
Heavily defended

        Bb                           F          C
Now the trap has been sprung and the battle has begun
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm              A
   Descend into darkness

Gm                     Bb             C
   Three-hundred-three days below the sun
[Chorus]
             Dm       Bb
Fields of Verdun

        C            Am
And the battle has begun

           Bb
Nowhere to run

           Dm
Father and son

            Gm
Fall one by one

          A
Under the gun

            Dm                Bb
Thy will be done (thy will be done)

        C               Am
And the judgement has begun

           Bb
Nowhere to run

           Dm
Father and son

            E
Fall one by one

             A
Fields of Verdun
[Verse]
         Dm
Though a million shells have scarred the land

       Bb
No one has the upper hand

         C
From the ground above to trenches

          A
Where the soldiers make their stand

       Dm
As the trenches slowly turn to mud

         Bb
And then quickly start to flood

       C
Death awaits in every corner

        Bb                       F             C
As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm              A
   Descend into darkness

Gm                     Bb             C
   Three-hundred-three days below the sun
[Chorus]

            Gm
Fall one by one

          A
Under the gun

            Dm                Bb
Thy will be done (thy will be done)

        C               Am
And the judgement has begun

           Bb
Nowhere to run

           Dm

Fields of Verdun
[Instrumental] Dm [Bridge]
Dm           Bb
Fields of execution

          C                  Dm
Turned to wasteland from the grass

Bb               Dm
Thou shalt go no further

       F                     A
It was said: "They shall not pass!"

    Bb          F                C              F
The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war
So...
Bb
Go ahead!

Am
Face the led!

Gm
Join the dead!

F
Though you die!

E
Where you lie!

E            A
Never asking why!
