(Intro)
Em Bm G Bm X3
Em ...

         Em
Hear the sound of a machinegun
        Bm
Hear it echo in the night
G
Mortars firing rains the scene
Bm
Scars the fields that once were green

       Em
It’s a stalemate at the frontline
          Bm
Where the soldiers rest in mud
G
Roads and houses all is gone
Bm
There’s no glory to be won

          Em
Know that many men will suffer
          D
Know that many will die
G
Half a million lives at stake
Bm
At the fields of Passchendaele

               C               D
And as the the night falls the general calls
        G      D       C
And the battle carries on and on
            D             Bm
What is the purpose of it all?
C                     D
What’s the price of a mile?

(Chorus)
Em
Thousands of feet march to the beat
        Bm
It’s an army on the march
G
Long way from home
Bm                             D
Paying the price in young mens lives

Em
Thousands of feet march to the beat
        Bm
It’s an army in despair
G
Knee deep in mud
Bm                           D                     
Stuck in a trench with no way out

Em

Em
Thousand of machineguns
        Bm
Kept on firing through the night
G
Mortars blazed and wrecked the scene
Bm
Gone is the fields that once were green

        Em
Still a deadlock at the frontline
          Bm
Where the soldiers die in mud
G
Roads and houses since long gone
Bm
Still no glory has been won

          Em
Know that many has suffered
          D
Know that many has died
G
6 miles of ground has been won
Bm
Half a million men are gone

           C               D
And as the men crawled the general called
        G       D       C
And the killing carried on and on
             D             Bm
What was the purpose of it all?
C                     D
What’s the price of a mile?

(Chorus)
Em
Thousands of feet march to the beat
        Bm
It’s an army on the march
G
Long way from home
Bm                             D
Paying the price in young mens lives

Em
Thousands of feet march to the beat
        Bm
It’s an army in despair
G
Knee deep in mud
Bm                           D                     
Stuck in a trench with no way out

Em D Em D

Em
Young men are dying
D
They pay the price
Em
Oh how they suffer
Em         D                     G
So tell me what's the price of a mile
