      Cry Soldier Cry     -    U.D.O.

4 x Bm A A Bm

Bm            Em        A      Bm
Cold wind in the morning A telegram arrives 
   Bm            Em       G      A       Bm
Arriving with no warning Another mother cries 

Bm              Em       A           Bm
Husbands, sons and brothers Hailed the call to war 
 Bm            Em          G       A       Bm 
Blinded by the others The promise: one for all 


Em                Am       D           C
What's it all in aid of? Obeying the command 
Em                  Am     D              C    C
Cold and tired and hungry Dying for some land 


              Bm    G      Bm
WHY DON'T YOU CRY, SOLDIER CRY? 
A             G
ANOTHER LETTER, YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER 
              Bm    G      Bm
CRY, SOLDIER CRY 
A             G
THERE WILL BE SORROW UNTIL TOMORROW 
   Bm    G      Bm
SO CRY, SOLDIER CRY 


The fear and all the sadness 
Of what it has become 
In this world of madness 
Another soldier gone 

Salute the highest honour 
The folding of the flag 
Finally the end is 
Another bodybag 

And all the time your comrades 
Their backs against the wall 
A band of brothers fighting 
One by one they fall 

WHY DON'T YOU CRY, SOLDIER CRY? 
ANOTHER LETTER, YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER 
CRY, SOLDIER CRY 
THERE WILL BE SORROW UNTIL TOMORROW 
SO CRY, SOLDIER CRY 

What's it all in aid of? 
Obeying the command 
Cold and tired and hungry 
Dying for some land 

WHY DON'T YOU CRY, SOLDIER CRY? 
ANOTHER LETTER, YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER 
CRY, SOLDIER CRY 
THERE WILL BE SORROW UNTIL TOMORROW 
SO CRY, SOLDIER CRY
