Lest We Forget by John and Sheila Ludgate
Lest We Forget
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
C / F / C / G
C F
Don’t know what you saw over there, another time someplace somewhere,
C G
just a kid with a uniform and a gun
C F
Sign up for something to do, steady pay across an ocean of blue
C G C
somewhere in the land of the midnight sun
C F
A medal for bravery, and a few medals more, dispatches from that far east war,
C G
discharge papers all kept in a drawer
C F
A question from a curious kid, what was it like, what you did
C G C
there’s a far-away look for an answer, nothing more
[Chorus]
F C F C G
Memories, of long gone heroes who still live in your dreams
F C F C G
Memories, of the good and the bad and all the gray in-between
Am G Am F G
Memories, can’t forget what should have never been
F C G F C
Memories, lest we forget…
[Instrumental]
Am / G / Am / F / G - F / C / G / F / C
C F
Nothing said, nothing more, than a black & white photo worn and torn,
C G
he was so young, could’ve been anyone
C F
Someone’s brother, someone’s son, a memory now, forever young,
C G C
just a kid with a uniform and a gun
[Chorus]
C F
So you carry that flag in that fall parade, for all the ones not here today,
C G
for what you saw and for what was done
C F
Good and evil, black and white, you did your best, what you thought was right
C G C
just a kid with a uniform and a gun
