We Were Soilders
[Instrumental intro] [Epic Guitar Music Hook] [Verse 1] Those were days we swore together Hearts of stone and hands like leather Come the fighting, no one left behind You were not forgotten, brother of mine [Guitar Breakdown] [verse 2] We fought together arm-in-arm Trying to keep each other safe from harm War made us hard and in war we grew colder We were soldiers We were soldiers [Music Continue] [Epic Guitar Music Hook] [ADD A QUIET MOMENT BEFORE THE DROP] [verse 3] Those are the days I recall We stood tall through it all The flash at night and the cry of death I watched you breathe your final breath [verse 4] Fighting together side-by-side I held you close as you died Carrying you out upon my shoulder We were soldiers We were soldiers [Music Continue] [Epic Guitar Music Hook] [ADD A QUIET MOMENT BEFORE THE DROP] [verse 5] They all said, “He served his country well, but in the end this soldier fell.” We fought as one, but you died alone In the end, we brought you home [verse 6] The storm is swift, but the Lord is strong We fought the cause, whether it right or wrong You died so young and I grew older We were soldiers We were soldiers [Outro] Curse those days when we swore together Hearts like stone through stormy weather Come the darkness, we couldn’t be much bolder We were soldiers We were soldiers
