Just a day, another day
B F# E
Beneath the Belgian sun
C#m7 B
Passed grave on grave, row upon row
E C#m E F#
Until I see the name, John Condon
[Verse]
B E
Carved in stone with harp and crown
B F# E
Little crosses in the ground
C#m7 B
And standing there, my silent prayer
E C#m E F#
Is for this boy who died a soldier
[Chorus]
B E
Wee lad will not grow old
G#m D#m
Heroes who don't come home
E G#m B
Here they lie in Belgian fields
F# B
and Picardy
[Instrumental]
B E G#m B F# B
[Verse]
E
Just a recruit in soldiers' blue
B F# E
From Ireland's shores to here
C#m7 B
This living hell, this cold (could tell)
E C#m E F#
Where young men die like you, John Condon
[Verse]
B E
And all around, the harp and crown
B F# E
The crosses in the ground
C#m7 B
Stands up and proves the bitter truth
E C#m E F#
The waste of youth that lies forgotten
[Chorus]
B E
Wee lad will not grow old

Heroes who won't come home

Here they lie in Belgian fields

Now tell me John, 'fore I go on
B F# E
What did you come in here for?

With Ireland's home, your life untold
E C#m E F#
Fourteen years old to die a soldier
[Bridge]
B E
And all around, the harp and crown
B F# E
The crosses in the ground
E
What cause to serve, so underserved
G#m E
Heroes that don’t come home

Sing out for all their souls

Here they lie in Belgian fields
F# B
and Picardy
