   PM     p   p       p    PM-----|   \---3---/   \---3---/

play "next bit" again 4 times then into verses
the verses are all played solely in the 6th string in
the same rhythm as "next bit"

1 Bodies  fill  the  fields   I   see
2 Barking    of    machine    gun   fire         does
3 Life  planned  out  before  my  birth
E|0--0-0-0--0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|0--0-0-0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|

  hungry   heroes   end.
  nothing   to  me  now
  nothing  could  I  say.
E|3--3-3-3--3--3--3--3-3-3-3-|2--2-2-2--2--2--2-2-2-2-|

  No one   to   play   soldier   now,
  Sounding   of   the   clock   that   ticks       get
  Had   no   chance   to   see   myself
E|0--0-0-0--0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|0--0-0-0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|

  no one   to   pretend.
  used   to   it  somehow.
  moulded   day   by   day.
E|3--3-3-3--3--3--3--3-3-3-3-|7--7-7-7--7--7--7-7-7-7-|

the second half of each verse follows the same pattern

Running blind through killing fields,
bred to kill them all.
Victim of what said should be,
a servant till I fall

then with rhythm fig 1
Back to the front. You will do what I say, when I say.
Back to the front. You will die when I say you must die.
Back to the front. You coward, you servant, you blind man.
(then some palm muted open E-string strumming)

then with rhythm figure 2:
Why...  am I dying?   Kill...  have no fear.
Lie...  live off lying.  Hell...  hell is here.

then a big solo mostly played over E5 with occaisionally a C5 and maybe a D5

then with rhythm figure 2 again:
Why...  am I dying?   Kill...  have no fear.
Lie...  live off lying.  Hell...  hell is here.
                         I was born for dying....
