A butcher, yes that was my trade, but the King's shilling is now my fee,
    D5       G5      D5         G5                F5       G5      A5   A5 A5
A butcher I may as well have stayed, for the slaughter that I see,
          D5      G5       D5    G5           F5     Bb5        F5        A5
And the preacher, in his pulpit,  sermoned,"Go & fight! Do what is right!"
   D5         G5       D5         G5            F5       G5        A5    A5 A5
But he don't have to hear these guns, & I'll bet he sleeps at night!


   A5             D5              D5       G5               Bb5
And I--------, and I can't stop shaking, my hands won't stop shaking,
    D5              D5        G5              Bb5
My arms won't stop shaking, my mind won't stop shaking,
   A5         G(type2)  G5  G(type2)       
I want to go home,            
         F5        C5  C5  C5      D5
Please, let me go home------------------, go home!

And I have seen a friend of mine hang on the wire, like some rag toy,
      D5      G5         D5          G5        F5    G5       A5     A5 A5 A5
Then, in the heat, the flies come down, and cover up the boy,
         D5         G5        D5          
And the flies come down in Gommecourt, 
    G5       F5     Bb5        F5         A5
Thiepval, Mametz Wood and French Ver-dun,
         D5     G5        D5          G5               
If the preacher he could see those flies, 
            F5             G5        A5     A5 A5 A5
Wouldn't preach for the sound of guns!


   A5             D5              D5       G5               Bb5
And I--------, and I can't stop shaking, my hands won't stop shaking,
    D5              D5        G5              Bb5
My arms won't stop shaking, my mind won't stop shaking,
   A5         G(type2)  G5  G(type2)       
I want to go home,            
         F5        C5  C5  C5      D5
Please, let me go home------------------, go home!
