[Intro]
D   D
 
[Verse 1]
D
  Charles Alexander - didn't come from much
D
  Big family - not so big in luck
       Bm7                    Em7
But he loved them - he really loved them
         D       D
He was a fighter
 
[Verse 2]
D
  Our Charlie - lived in darker times
D
  Did his duty - join the Army line
          Bm7                Em7
Before he had to - he didn't have to
         D       D
He was a fighter
 
[Chorus]
         D               A
He never fought for this
                 Bm           G
New suit and the razor’s kiss
                  D             A
A gas light and a cobbled floor
               G
Everyone had expected more
     G               D   D   D   D
When Charlie went to war
 
[Verse 3]
D
  Charles Alexander, found himself in France
D
  Skilled driver, on the big advance
              Bm7                   Em7
But then they shot him, they really caught him
         D       D
He was a fighter
 
[Verse 4]
D
  Our Charlie, prisoner of war
D
  Dark days of loyalty ignored
           Bm7                  Em7
He spent a year there, a lonely year there
         D       D
He was a fighter
 
[Chorus]
         D               A
He never fought for this
                 Bm           G
New suit and the razor’s kiss
                  D             A
A gas light and a cobbled floor
               G
Everyone had expected more
     G               D   D   D   D
When Charlie went to war
 
[Verse 5]
D
  Charles Alexander, got to safer lands
D
  War is over, the peace was in his hands
                Bm7               Em7
But things were different, really different
         D       D
He was a fighter
 
[Verse 6]
D
  Our Charlie couldn’t face his life
D
  Dark night and the safety of his knife
      Bm7        Em7
Laid aside, a suicide ...
            D       D
He’d been a fighter
 
[Chorus]
         D               A
He never fought for this
                 Bm           G
New suit and the razor’s kiss
                  D             A
A gas light and a cobbled floor
               G
Everyone had expected mooooooore
 
[Chorus]
         D               A
He never fought for this
               Bm            G
Two years of a family missed
                    D               A
A grave outside the churchyard wall
                   G
His reward for his duty call ..
                       Bm
When Charlie - went to war.
 
[Bridge]
             A             G
And like the Hueys and the Stewarts
                        Bm
And the Gracies and the rest
       A             G
Of the million other souls
 
Who only tried to do their beeeeeest
 
[Chorus]
           D               A
They never fought for this
                 Bm           G
Their names on a granite list
               D            A
The cost of de-cisions made
                  G
While anthems are loudly played
     G NC                D   D   D   D
When Charlie - went to - war
