Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Fade away, fade away, ah
[C]Old sol[D]diers nev[G]er die,
[D]never die, nev[G]er die
[C]Old [D]soldiers nev[G]er die,
[D]they just fade [G]away[C]
[G]On [C]the 7th of Dec[D]ember,
[G]in the year of 41,
[D]the free world met disaster
[G]at the hands of the rising [C]sun.
[D]From the bastion[G]s of Corregidor,
Pearl Harbor,
[D]and Bataan
came [G]the sound [C]of war [G]and fury,
[D]and the death march of [G]free [C]man.
[G]Old [C]soldie[D]rs never [G]die,
never [D]die, [G]never die.
[C]Old [D]soldiers nev[G]er die,
[D]they just fade [G]away.[C][G]
[C]Then from [D]the land of way down [G]under,
a mighty [D]voice did say,
Our cause [Bm]is just,
[G]in [C]God we trust,
[D]I will return s[G]ome day.
[Bm]From Minda[D]nao to Tarawa,
our [G]battle song it grew,
Until [D]on Suribachi,
at last [C]old glory [G]flew.
[C]Old [D]soldiers nev[G]er die,
[D]Never die, [G]never die,
[C]Old [D]soldiers nev[G]er die,
[D]They just fade [G]away.[C][G][C][D][G]
[D][G][C][D][G][D][G][C]
[G]From Ewo[C], Lady, and[D] a thousand isles,
[G]our just cause never cea[D]sed.
Until one day he did re[G]turn,
and once more [C]there [D]was peace.
[G]And now somewhere there
stands a [D]man,
his duty o 'er [G]and won.
[C]The [G]world wil[D]l never forget him.
To [G]him we [C]say, [G]well done.
[C]Old [D]soldiers nev[G]er die,
[D]never die, [G]never die.
[C]Old [D]soldiers nev[G]er die,
[D]they just fade [G]away.[C][G]
Fadeaway, fade[Em]away, [G]fadeaway
Fadeaway,
