OK hopefully this should be an improvement on the other guys tabs for this song. Did some minor corrections to v.2, substituted Fm and D7 with the right chords F and Dm Capo 3rdCWell how do you Amdo young FWillie DmMcBride, Do you Gmind if I sit here down Fby your gravCeside, And rest for a Amwhile in the Fwarm summer Dmsun, I've been Gwalking all day and IF'm nearly dCone. CI see by your Amgravestone you were Fonly Dm19, When you Gjoined the great Ffallen in C19G16, Well CI hope you died Amquick and I Dmhope you died clean, Or GWillie McBride was it Fslow and Cobscene.Chorus:CDid they Gbeat the drum slowly, F C Did they play the fife lowly, Did they Gsound the dead march, as they Flowered you Gdown, Did the Fband play the last post and cChoruAms, Did the Cpipes play the FFlowers of the GForeCst.C Am F Dm And did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind, G F C In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined, Am F Dm And though you died back in 1916, G F C To that loyal heart you're forever 19. C Am F Dm Or are you a stranger without even a name, G F C G Forever enshrined behind some old glass pane,In Can old photoAmgraph all torn Dmtattered and stained, And Gfaded to yellow in a Fbrown leatheCr frame.Chorus C Am F Dm The sun's shining down on these green fields of France, G F C The warm wind blows gently and the red poppies dance, Am F Dm The trenches have vanished long under the plow G F C No gas, no barbed wire, no guns firing now. C Am F Dm But here in this graveyard it's still "No Man's Land", G F C G The countless white crosses in mute witness stand, C Am Dm To man's blind indifference to his fellow man, G F C And a whole generation that were butchered and damned. Chorus C Am F Dm And I can't help but wonder, oh Willie McBride G F C Do all those who lie here know why they die,Did you rAmeally belFieve them when they tCold you the cause Did they rGeally believe that this Fwar would end Cwars. C Am F Dm Well, the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame G F C G The killing and dying it was all done in vain, Oh CWillie McAmBride it all Dmhappened again, And Gagain, and again, aFnd again, aCnd again.
