C Gsus C
It was just before dawn one miserable morning in black forty-four

C
When the foreward commander was told to sit tight,

F/C C
When they asked that his men be withdrawn

C
And the generals gave thanks, as the other ranks

Gsus C
Held back the enemy tanks for a while

C Gsus
And the Anzio Bridgehead was held for the price

C
Of a few hundred ordinary lives



C G C G
And kind old King George sent Mother a note when he heard that Father was gone

C G C
It was, I recall, in the form of a scroll with gold leaf and all

C
And I found it one day in a drawer of old photographs hidden away

C Gsus
And my eyes still grow damp to remember

C
His Majesty signed with his own rubber stamp

C G C
It was dark all around, there was frost on the ground

G
When the Tigers broke free

C
And no-one survived from the Royal Fusiliers, Company "C"

G C G C
They were all left behind, most of them dead - the rest of them dying

C G C
And that's how the high command took my daddy from me
