Another Man's Cause =================== By the Levellers - From the album "Levelling the Land" ------------------------------------------------------ This is a great song. Simple to play (like most of the Leveller's stuff), but is enhanced by adding rythmic hammer-ons and pull-offs in the latter stages. Listen to the song and get into it... Intro +++++ Verse 1 +++++++ Gunshots shatter in the peace of night It's just another firefight For the people of this little town But for the dying soldier Well he's feeling ten years older As he's lying face down on the ground All the words that are in his head And all the words that his mother said As she would put him to bed back home Chorus ++++++ Your Daddy when he died in the Falklands Fighting for another man's cause And your brother he was killed in the last war And your mother, well she's lying home alone Verse Two +++++++++ Everyday she sees your face On the picture on the fireplace With your brother as he was leaving school Then a day came five years ago You said "Mother, I need to know" And you spoke the words your brother spoke before "I know the things my Daddy done And I've seen the medals that he's won And I know this is what he would have wanted for me CHORUS ++++++ Bridge ++++++ Now she wonders at it all Just in whose name, do these brave young heros fall And how many more are gonna answer that call They're gonna fight and die in another country's war They're gonna die for a religion didn't believe in at all They're gonna die in a place they should never been at all Oh, never been at all CHORUS ++++++ Lose yourself in the cresendo bit +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Repeat six times) CHORUS ++++++ This document was done by Jeremy Aston.
