      [Intro]
Bb                          Eb         Bb
Far from their land as they made their stand
           Gm             Eb     F
They stood strong and the legend still lives on

[Verse 1]
Gm
1918, the great war rages on
                         F     Gm
A battalion is lost in Argonne
Bb
Under fire there's nothing they can do
                                      F       Gm
There's no way they can get a message through

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Eb             F             D              Gm F
Suffered heavy losses as the battle carries on
Bb        Cm              D
Liberty Division standing strong

[Chorus]
Gm
Far from their land as they made their stand
  Eb   Bb       F
A disregarded demand
     Gm
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
     Eb           Bb              Gm           F
They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye
Gm
Weapon in hand, as they made their stand
      Eb   Bb        F
Still disregarding demand
           Gm
They would never comply, they would rather die
      Eb             Bb               Gm      F
Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved

[Verse]
Gm
Friendly fire, munitions running low
                                           F    Gm
The supplies, they were dropped upon their foe
Bb
1918, the war still rages on
                                     F     Gm
The battalion still trapped in the Argonne

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Eb              F                  D            Gm  F
Chose not to surrender, they chose victory or defeat
       Bb          Cm            D
Fallen brothers resting by their feet

[Chorus]
Gm
Far from their land as they made their stand
  Eb   Bb       F
A disregarded demand
     Gm
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
     Eb           Bb              Gm           F
They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye
Gm
Weapon in hand, as they made their stand
      Eb   Bb        F
Still disregarding demand
           Gm
They would never comply, they would rather die
      Eb             Bb               Gm      F
Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved

Bb                          Eb         Bb
Far from their land as they made their stand
   Eb  Bb       F
A disregarded demand
        Bb                    Eb         Bb
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
        Gm           Eb           F
Live or die, who can tell there's no goodbye
     Bb                   Eb         Bb
With weapon in hand, as they made their stand
      Eb   Bb        F
Still disregarding demand
           Bb                       Eb     Bb
They would never comply, they would rather die

Eb             F                   D                    Gm     F
Suffered heavy losses, through the great war they stood strong
Bb        Cm              D
But the memory of the fallen still lives on

[Chorus]
Gm
Far from their land as they made their stand
  Eb   Bb       F
A disregarded demand
     Gm
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high
     Eb           Bb              Gm           F
They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye
Gm
Weapon in hand, as they made their stand
      Eb   Bb        F
Still disregarding demand
           Gm
They would never comply, they would rather die
      Eb             Bb               Gm      F
Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved
