Butcher's Tale (Western Front 1914)


      Dm  G            Dm G
A butcher yes that was my trade
           F      Dm       F      A  
But the king's shilling is now my fee
      Dm   G            Dm   G
A butcher I may as well have stayed
           F      G      A
For the slaughter that I see


   Am
And I
    Dm           Dm/C  
And I can't stop shaking
    Dm/B            Dm/Bb
My hands won't stop shaking
   Dm               Dm/C
My arms won't stop shaking
   Dm/B             Dm/Bb
My mind won't stop shaking
  Am         G
I want to go home
       F          Eb  D   Cm          
Please let me go hoooooooome
    D
Go home
