Verse 2
F
Am
on, soldier on my good countrymen
C
Keep fighting for your culture now
G
Keep fighting for your land
F
I know it's been thousands of years
And I feel your hurt
Am
And I know it's wrong
and you feel you've been chained
And broken and burned
C
And those beautiful old people
G
Those wise old souls
Have been ground down for far too long
F
By that spineless man
That greedy man
Am
That heartless man
C
Deceiving man, that government hand
G
Taking blood and land, taking blood and land
And still they can
F
But your dreaming
Am
and your warrior spirit lives on
C
And it is so so so strong
In the earth, in the trees, in the rocks
G
In the water, in your blood
and in the air we breathe
F
Am
Soldier on, soldier on my good countrymen
C
Keep fighting for your children now
G
Keep fighting for your land
