Letter From A Distant Shore

A            F#m            D            A      E

[Verse]
     A                  F#m
Dear brother, you would not believe
           D                        A       E
What these killing fields, force my eyes to see

       A                    F#m
From a snipers post, with a trembling hand
      D                A       E
Put a bullet in.....to another man

          A                     F#m
Watch the crimson bloom, on his uniform
       D                       A        E
Billow like a cloud, ‘till his life was gone


[Chorus]

    G       D           A
The killers stain heavy on me now
       E               A
Fix my bayonet for the final hour
          D                  A
When that whistle blows, its mournful sound
     E                 D
Will deliver me to the hungry mouth
       F       G         A
Of the howling hounds of hell


[Bridge]
A            F#m            D            A      E


[Verse]
         A                     F#m
When the snowball comes, the recruitment drive
       D                               A       E
Don’t  let your heart swell up, with unfounded pride

      A                      F#m
For a distant King, you’d be fighting for
        D                   A       E
Lay you down to waste, on a distant shore


[Chorus]
    G       D           A
The killers stain heavy on me now
       E               A
Fix my bayonet for the final hour
          D                  A
When that whistle blows, its mournful sound
     E                 D
Will deliver me to the hungry mouth
       F       G         A
Of the howling hounds of hell
