Intro: F#m C#m7 F#m C#m7
Verse
[F#m]Do I hear what I [C#m]think Im hearing
[F#m]Do I see the signs I [C#m]think I see
[D]Or is it just fantas[E]y[F#m]
Is it true that the [C#m7]beast is waking
[F#m]Stirring in his restless [C#m7]sleep tonight
In the pale moon[B] light[Bm]
[F#m]In the grip of this c[C#m7]old December
[F#m]You and I have reason[E] to remember
Chorus
[A]Soldiers write the songs that [F#m]soldiers sing the songs that [D]you and I[Dm] dont sing
They blow their horns and ma[D]rch along t[A]hey drum their drums and [F#m]look so strong
[A]Youd think that nothing [D]in the world was w[E]rong
[A]Soldiers write the songs that s[F#m]oldiers sing the songs that [D]you and I[Dm] wont[A] sing
[F#m]Lets look the other [Fdim]way ta[C#7]king a [F#m]chance
Cause [A]if the bugler starts to [D]play w[E]e too must [A]dance.
Verse
Whats that sound, whats that dreadful rumble, wont somebody tell me what I hear
In the distance but drawing near
Is it only a storm approaching
All that thunder and the blinding light in the winter night
In the grip of this cold December
You and I have reason to remember
