Just a day, another day

Beneath the Belgian sun

Passed grave on grave, row upon row

Until I see the name, John Condon
[Verse]

Carved in stone with harp and crown
F# C# B
Little crosses in the ground
G#m7 F#
And standing there, my silent prayer
B G#m B C#
Is for this boy who died a soldier
[Chorus]
F# B
Wee lad will not grow old
D#m A#m
Heroes who don't come home
B D#m F#
Here they lie in Belgian fields
C# F#
and Picardy
[Instrumental]

B
Just a recruit in soldiers' blue
F# C# B
From Ireland's shores to here
G#m7 F#
This living hell, this cold (could tell)
B G#m B C#
Where young men die like you, John Condon
[Verse]
F# B
And all around, the harp and crown
F# C# B
The crosses in the ground
G#m7 F#
Stands up and proves the bitter truth
B G#m B C#
The waste of youth that lies forgotten
[Chorus]

Wee lad will not grow old

Heroes who won't come home

Now tell me John, 'fore I go on

What did you come in here for?

With Ireland's home, your life untold

Fourteen years old to die a soldier

What cause to serve, so underserved

Sing out for all their souls

Here they lie in Belgian fields

and Picardy
