Chords

[Intro] Em Bm G Bm (x3) Em [Verse]
         Em
Hear the sound of a machinegun

        Bm
Hear it echo in the night

G
Mortars firing rains the scene

Bm
Scars the fields that once were green

       Em
It’s a stalemate at the frontline

          Bm
Where the soldiers rest in mud

G
Roads and houses all is gone

Bm
There’s no glory to be won

          Em
Know that many men will suffer

          D
Know that many will die

G
Half a million lives at stake

Bm
At the fields of Passchendaele

               C               D
And as the the night falls the general calls

        G      D       C
And the battle carries on and on

            D             Bm
What is the purpose of it all?

C                     D
What’s the price of a mile?
[Chorus]
Em
Thousands of feet march to the beat

        Bm
It’s an army on the march

G
Long way from home

Bm                             D
Paying the price in young mens lives

Em
Thousands of feet march to the beat

        Bm
It’s an army in despair

G
Knee deep in mud

Bm                           D                     
Stuck in a trench with no way out
[Instrumental] Em [Verse]
Em
Thousand of machineguns

        Bm
Kept on firing through the night

G
Mortars blazed and wrecked the scene

Bm
Gone is the fields that once were green

        Em
Still a deadlock at the frontline

          Bm
Where the soldiers die in mud

G
Roads and houses since long gone

Bm
Still no glory has been won

          Em
Know that many has suffered

          D
Know that many has died

G
6 miles of ground has been won

Bm
Half a million men are gone

           C               D
And as the men crawled the general called

        G       D       C
And the killing carried on and on

             D             Bm
What was the purpose of it all?

C                     D
What’s the price of a mile?

Stuck in a trench with no way out

Em
Young men are dying

They pay the price

Oh how they suffer

So tell me what's the price of a mile
