[Intro]
G                     D               C  D                                  G
  A soldier of fortune came home from war and wondered what he was fighting for
                   D              C                 D                         G
  This sad-eyed soldier, he broke down and cried, Oh he was so broke up inside
                     D              C             D
  When will it end?, When will it end?
G           D   C                    D
  The bells toll, For those about to die
[Instrumental]

  The battle's over, the war is won, But this soldier of fortune, he will carry on
G                           D       C                      D
  He will carry on when all hope is gone, He will carry on       
[Verse 2]
G                     D           C                        D
  He's trained to kill and kill he will, As we march along
G             D        C                          D
  Singing just another soldier song, Just another soldier song
[Instrumental]
