What Are They Fighting For?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sent away when he was nineteen
Bombs went off no-one heard him scream
He just wanted to be a marine
Bombs went off no-one heard him scream
Left, right, left, right [x many]
Tanks! and their bombs!
and their 15 hundred tonnes! [x many]
