New suit and the razor’s kiss

A gas light and a cobbled floor

Everyone had expected more

When Charlie went to war

Two years of a family missed

A grave outside the churchyard wall

His reward for his duty call ..

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
