[Verse 1]

  Esus4 E                 Esus4 E
Today - is the day that I die
       Esus4 E
For my motherland
     Esus4   E
In a faraway place
  Esus4  E        Esus4          E
I know - that the battle will be won
       Esus4         E
By the brave and the strong
       Esus4         E         A5    A
By the brave and the strong

[Bridge]

D                    E
I'll lace up my boots
    D            E
Put on my uniform
       D                 E
And we'll unfurl the flag
      D             E
We'll fight and die under its shade
Bm                 E
 We will fight them
D
 In the air
E                Bm                 E
We'll fight them on the beaches, in the streets
      D             E
We'll fight them anywhere

[Chorus]

Bm                   E
 In the shade of the Union Jack
D                        E                   N.C.
 We'll go forward and we won't ever look back

[Verse 2]

  Esus4 E                 Esus4 E
Today - is the day that I die
       Esus4 E
For my motherland
     Esus4    E
In a faraway place
Esus4  E        Esus4       E
We  -  traveled hundreds of miles
      Esus4          E
Come along away from home
        Esus4    E       A5    A
For the battle today

[Bridge]

D                    E
I'll lace up my boots
    D            E
Put on my uniform
       D                 E
And we'll unfurl the flag
      D             E
We'll fight and die under its shade
Bm                 E
 We will fight them
D
 In the bars
E                Bm                 E
We'll fight them on the picture, in the seats
      D             E
We'll fight them anywhere

[Chorus]

Bm                   E
 In the shade of the Union Jack
D                        E                   N.C.
 We'll go forward and we won't ever look back

[Verse 3]

Esus4 E           Esus4        E
Joe - fell at the hands of the hung
      Esus4       E
Just about at halftime
     Esus4    E
In a terrible seat
    Esus4   E                   Esus4 E
The Frogs - dealt with Kevin it seems
             Esus4    E
While he was having a hit
          Esus4      E        A5    A
But we'll have our revenge

[Bridge]

D            E
Hip oligarchy
  D                     E
Insults the British flag
D                  E
We'll lay into them
      D          E
We'll teach them how the English fight
D                E
We're proud to be
D           E
 Another British army
Bm             E
White like the other one
    D               E
But not so well-paid

[Chorus]

Bm                   E
 In the shade of the Union Jack
D                        E
 We'll go forward and we won't ever...
Bm                   E
 In the shade of the Union Jack
D                        E               N.C.
 We'll go forward and we won't ever look back
