This is heavily borrowing from the other tab on this site, but I think that the 
chord forms sound much better with the capo on 3(I also did some other cleaning up)

Capo 3

C                    F   Dm   C    G   C
Born in the plains a farmer?s sons and brothers the same
F      Dm  C G  Am   E       G         F     G
raised on promises       we?d stay that way
   C                F  Dm  C  G   C
As boys we believed summers at the sea we were free
    F Dm   C   G  Am   E   G        F        G
to become men of good will side by side

              F   G   Am     C                  F
And we were children then, foot prints in the sand
              F  G  Am        C             F        C    Am G
And where the ocean bends we made our promises. He knows.

C                   F  Dm   C G    C                  F Dm  C   G    Am  E
Duty soon called, nineteen forty three we enrolled together we would be   G    G        F       G
our family?s pride.

             F   G    Am        C              F
And we were soldiers then, our bodies in the sand.
                F      G         Am    C                 F
And like that sand through our hands, go our grandest plans.
            F          G            Am        G                F
And just to see your face for one moment I?d cross the ocean again
 C   F   G  F  G  C   F      G
the end is not th e  end.

      F  C  G        F    F  C   G     F
And I?ll be by your side on the other side
 F   C  G        F   F   C   G     F    G
I?ll be by your side on the other side.

                  F    G  Am       C                  F
And through the cloud of death we find our way back home
              F    G    Am   C            F
And though I hold your hand all must go alone
              F              G    Am        G
And when you see the face of our maker you don?t have to be
  F     C   F     G   F G C   F       G
ashamed He knows the promises we made.

      F  C  G        F   F   C   G     F
And I?ll be by your side on the other side
 F   C   G       F   F   C   G     F
I?ll be by your side on the other side.
