GDig down deep don't fCold
GFor the faintest wind might bDlow
EmYou’re off your mGark, oEmff your gGame
             Em(D)          G  
Soil your old man’s good name
GHoist your head, don't wCeep. 
GFor a terrible storm might swDeep
EmYou’re out to sGea, tEmhat big, black sGea
             Em(D)         G  
We’ll lay you down to sleep
EmAnd the soldiers circle Ground and round
EmAnd the trumpeter’s horn blows a dGeafening sound
DYou plant your feet, you stand your ground
DWhile the bricks you lay
DThey come crumbling down
GFrom hEmead to Ctoe
Covered up in dGust lEmike JeCricho
When you shed yGour skin Emdown to your Cbones
You know a Dhouse don’t make a home
DWhen you build it all alone, no, no 
DThat’s just a hollow skeleton of sticks and stGones
GLeft, right, left, we’ll maCrch
GTo the pounding beat of our heDarts
EmAnd the battle will rattle the eGarth
EmDown to its cGore
                 Em(D)                    G  
Do you forget just what we’re fighting for?
GAnd the sun will rise in the Ceast
GAnd the crimson’ll stream at your fDeet
EmWe’ll come and reGcede
EmWe’ll bathe in sGtain
                    Em(D)                G  
And by the grace of God we can start again
