We’re keeping the kingdom free!
[Verse 1]
      Gm                     Eb5
As an archduke falls and the battle horn calls

Our lives would never be the same

We were looking down the barrel of a gun

Now the war has come and the battle has begun

       F5                Gm
We are desperate and overrun

To the war drum we’ll be marching until it’s done

Eb5         F5           D5             Gm   F5
  Lead the way, we will follow into the fray

We will hold the line we will not be led astray

 For king and for country we, are flooding the river

 Our stand at Yser will be, the end of the race to the sea

 The last piece of Belgium is free, we’re keeping a sliver

Gm                       C5           D5   Gm
 A cog in the war machine, October of 1914
[Verse 2]
       Gm                     Eb5
As our foe draws forth we are moving on north

We will never let them have it all

          Bb5               C5                Gm   F5
There’s a price for freedom paid by Belgium’s sons

         Bb5                      F5
They may take our towns, they may conquer our grounds

We’ll defend the nation and the crown

        Gm           Eb5             F5    D5
We’ll uphold our independence with our guns

Eb5         F5        D5                      Gm  F5
   All the way, on to triumph or to judgement day

        Eb5                 F5          D5   D5 C5 Bb5 Am
We will follow and we will not be led astray
