A flight of English bombers across the canal

Like some heavy          metal        fruit

[Verse 2]
D
In a G-load disaster from the rate of climb
Bb              C           D
sometimes I'd faint and be lost to our side

But theres no reward for failure but death
      Bb               C          D
so watch me in the mirror keep me in the glidepath
E                           D     C
Get me through these radars no I cannot fail
      D   E               D   C
not when my silver slugs are eager to feed
   D      E       D   C
I cannot fail no not now
       A
when twenty five bombers wait ripe

[Chorus]
A A B     B B D A      A A B
A A B     B B D A      A A B
A     A     B      B  B D  A    A A B
They hung there      dependant from the sky
A     A     B      B  B   D  A      A A B
Like some heavy          metal        fruit
A  A    B        B    B   D      A A B
These bom-------bers are ripened ready to tilt
D                                                     F#
Must these Englishmen live that I might die must they live that I might die

Blasts from clustered R4M quartets in my snout
Bb                  C        D
See these English planes go burn

Now you be my witness how red were the skies
 D        E               D       C
When the fortresses flow for the very last time
