before the guard did - colm r. mcguinness lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
head down and flak plate covered
how steady’s that aim there, guardsmen?
stand fast, hold the line now, brother
good as any day to die

held down, ten to one outnumbered
stand still, let the storm pass through
chaos raining down like thunder
send them running through that eye

[chorus]
uh, said i’d write you letters when things getting better, well
ah, that was ‘fore this all done started
ah, yeah, it’s in our bones, i ain’t coming home
them boys wouldn’t have it, i heard thе planet
done broke bеfore the guard did

[post*chorus]
done broke before the guard did

[verse 2]
hope this letter gives you closure
tell the boys that their father tried
coming home when this war was over
writing this, thinking i’d survive
stand tall when the world’s on fire
plant your feet and hold the line
i know you can, yeah, i ain’t no liar
hope my death just buys some time

[chorus]
uh, said i’d write you letters when things getting better, well
ah, that was ‘fore this all done started
ah, yeah, it’s in our bones, i ain’t coming home
them boys wouldn’t have it, i heard the planet
done broke before the guard did

[post*chorus]
done broke before the guard did

[bridge]
it’s in your bones, war’s been our home
long ‘fore this all done started
it’s my gift to you, you see it through
long after i’m departed

[chorus]
uh, said i’d write you letters when things getting better, well
ah, that was ‘fore this all done started
ah, yeah, it’s in our bones, i ain’t coming home
them boys wouldn’t have it, i heard the planet
done broke before the guard did
[post*chorus]
done broke before the guard did
