Heard a Bbhundred miles away
A Cmillion shells were fired
And the Agreen fields turned to grey
The bomDmbardment lasted all day long
Yet the Bbforts were standing strong
CHeavily defended
Now the Bbtrap has been sprung and the Fbattle has Cbegun

Though a Dmmillion shells have scarred the land
No one Bbhas the upper hand
From the Cground above to trenches
Where the Asoldiers make their stand
As the Dmtrenches slowly turn to mud
And then Bbquickly start to flood
Death aCwaits in every corner
As they Bbdie in the mud, fill the Ftrenches with Cblood

[Intro]

Dm Bb C Am

Bb Dm E A

[Verse]

As the drum roll started on that day

Heard a hundred miles away

A million shells were fired

And the green fields turned to grey

The bombardment lasted all day long

Yet the forts were standing strong

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

Nowhere to run

Father and son

Fall one by one

Under the gun

Dm Bb

Thy will be done (thy will be done)

C Am

And the judgement has begun

Nowhere to run

Father and son

Fall one by one

Fields of Verdun

[Verse]

Though a million shells have scarred the land

No one has the upper hand

From the ground above to trenches

Where the soldiers make their stand

As the trenches slowly turn to mud

And then quickly start to flood

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]

Fields of Verdun

C Am

And the battle has begun

Nowhere to run

Under the gun

Thy will be done (thy will be done)

Nowhere to run

Father and son

Fall one by one

Fields of Verdun

[Instrumental]

[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...

Go ahead!

Face the led!

Join the dead!

Though you die!

Where you lie!

E A

Never asking why!
