Verse 1 :
Em                          C      D      Em                 C     D
In the gloom the gathering storm abates in the ships gimlet eyes await
Em                          C      D      Em                     C     D
The call to arms to hammer at the gates to blow them wide throw evil to its fate
Bm                             G      A       B                   G     A
All summer long the drills to build the machine to turn men from flesh n blood to steel

From paper soldiers to bodies on the beach from summer sands to Armageddon's reach

Overlord your master not your god the enemy coast dawning Grey with scud
Em                          C      D      Em                      C     D
These wretched souls pukin shakin fear to take a bullet for those who sent them here
Bm                       G      A       B                G     A
The world's alight the cliffs erupt in flame no escape remorseless shrapnel rains
Bm                            G    A       B                   G     A
Drowning men no chance for a warrior's fate a choking death enter hell's gate


Pre-Chorus 1 :
Em         C        G           D
Sliding we go, only fear on our side
Em            C           G           D
To the edge of the wire and we rush with the tide
Em       C              G          D
Oh the water is red with the blood of the dead
Em         C            G        D
But I'm still alive pray to god I survive

How long on this longest day til we finally make it through?

How long on this longest day til we finally make it through?

Em                       C      D      Em                 C     D
The rising dead faces bloated torn they are relieved the living wait their turn
Em                          C    D      Em                     C     D
Your numbers up the bullets got your name you still go on to hell and back again
Bm                        G      A       B                   G     A
Valhalla waits Valkyries rise and fall the warrior tombs lie open for us all
Bm                          G      A       B              G     A
A ghostly hand reaches through the veil blood and sand we will prevail

Pre-Chorus 2 :
Em         C        G           D
Sliding we go, only fear on our side

To the edge of the wire and we rush with the tide
