Lyrics

D bm
Is there anybody here who'd like to change his clothes into a uniform
G b7 g em a7
Is there anybody here who thinks they're only serving in a raging storm
D f#m
Is there anybody here with glory in their eyes
D f#m
Loyal to the end, whose duty is to die
G a
I want to see him, I want to wish him luck
D g
I wanna shake his hand, wanna call his name
A d
Pin a medal on the man

Is there anybody here who'd like to wrap a flag around an early grave
Is there anybody here who thinks they're standing taller on a battle wave
Is there anybody here like to do his part
Soldier to the world and a hero to his heart
I want to see him, I want to wish him luck
I wanna shake his hand, wanna call his name
Pin a medal on the man

Bm a
Is there anybody here proud of the parade
Bm g a
Who'd like to give a cheer and show they're not afraid
F#7 bm
I'd like like to ask him what he's trying to defend
E a a7
I'd like to ask him what he thinks he's gonna win
D bbm
Is there anybody here who thinks that following orders takes away the blame
G b7 g em a7
Is there anybody here who'd wouldn't mind a murder by another name
D f#m
Is there anybody here whose pride is on the line
D f#m
With the honor of the brave and the courage of the blind
G a
I want to see him, I want to wish him luck
D g
I wanna shake his hand, gonna call his name
A d
Pin a medal on the man
Medal on the man
