Poor Old Soldier Chords & Lyrics - Steeleye Span

[INTRO]
[A] [D]

[VERSE]
Oh, you poor old [A]soldier, what [Bm]will you be[G]come
When there's [A]no one left [D]marching to the [G]beat of your [A]drum?
You [Em]fought all the [A]battles and survived every [D]one
Old [G]soldier march [Em7]on, march [A]on

[VERSE]
Will you [D]join all the [A]wounded old [Bm]soldiers like [G]you
And re[A]flect on the [D]glory like [G]old soldiers [A]do?
But will you [Em]tell of your [A]comrades as they tell of [D]you?
Old [G]soldier march [A]on, march [D]on

[BRIDGE]
Will you [G]relive each [Em7]battle with [A]toy tin soldiers
So that [D]those who were [C]lost can su[G]rvive?
Will you [A]still see those [D]eyes under [A]dark smoky [D]skies?
All your [Em7]comrades who kept you a[A]live

[VERSE]
Oh, you [D]poor old [A]soldier, what [Bm]will you be[G]come
When there's [A]no one left [D]marching to the [G]beat of your [A]drum?
Will the [Em]band still be [A]playing as you lay down your [D]gun?
Old [G]soldier march [A]on, march [Bm]on
Old [G]soldier march [A]on, march [D]on
