Remember Me Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Oh, I am the Unknown Soldier
who [G]died in World War Two.
I [F]didn't want to

[Verse 2]
fight, it
was the [C]only thing to do.

[Verse 3]
[F]I was the victim o[C]f a w[G]orld
that went in[C]sane--
Will you [F]show me that I [G]didn't die in

[Verse 4]
[C]
vain.
Remember [F]me, when the

[Verse 5]
crosses are a [C]burnin',
Remem[G]ber

[Verse 6]
me,
when the racists come [C]around.

[Verse 7]
Remem[F]ber me,
when the tides of peace are turn[C]in',
Remember [G]me and please

[Verse 8]
don't let [C]me down.

[Verse 9]
On the South Pacific Islands
[G]and the Iwo Jima sands
[F]We raised the flag of freedom [G]over
[C]many distant lands
[F]And every time I killed a [C]man my
[G]own heart [Em]felt the [G]pain--
Will you [C]show me [G]that I didn't
die in [C]vain.
Remember [F]me, when the

[Verse 10]
crosses are a [C]burnin',
Remember [G]me,
when the racists[C]come around.
Remem[F]ber me,
when the tides of peace are turn[C]in',
Remember [G]me and please
don't let [C]me down.

[Verse 11]
And I carried my old rifle [C]to
[G]the European shore
And [F]every friend that died made
[C]me die a little more.
Have [F]pity on the man who put a
bul[G]let through my brain
[C]And [F]show me that I [G]didn't
die in [C]vain.

[Verse 12]
Remember [F]me,
when the crosses are a [C]burnin',
Remember [G]me,
when the [C]racists come around.
Remember [F]me,
when the tides of peace are [C]turnin',
Remem[G]ber me and please don't
[C]let me down.

[Verse 13]
When the Fascists started [C]marching
many [G]millions had to pay;
We [F]saw them rise to power
but we [C]looked the other way.
It [F]happened once before [G]and it can
happen once again--
Will you [F]show me [G]that I didn't die in [C]vain.

[Verse 14]
Re[G]member [F]me,
when the crosses are a [C]burnin',
Remember [G]me,
when the [C]racists come around.
Remember [F]me,
when the tides of peace are [C]turnin',
Remem[G]ber me and please
don't let me [C]down.
