The Last Battle

Dm Bb C Dm

[Verse]
Dm                  Bb
5th of May, V-day's just around the corner
C                 F               C
1945 the Fuhrer's reign is at its end
Dm                         Bb
Jenny at the gates, as the SS open fire
C                                   F            C
There's no time to waste, the final battle has begun

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                    C
After the downfall, a castle besieged
F          C      Dm
Facing the Nazis awaiting relief
Bb                      C                     A
Gangl and Lee and their men set the prisoners free

[Chorus]
             Dm                     Bb
And it's the end of the line of the final journey
C                   Dm
Enemies leaving the past
                                 Bb
And it's American troops and the German army
C                   Dm
Joining together at last

[Verse]
Dm                       Bb
One last fight, it's the death throes of the Third Reich
C                                F        C
Justice shall be done, the final battle remains
Dm                              Bb
Ammo is running low, they're depleting their machine guns
C                         F            C
Every bullet counts until surrender is announced

[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                    C
After the downfall, a castle relieved
  F           C         Dm
Defeating the Nazis who held them besieged
Bb                      C                     A
Gangl and Lee and their men set the prisoners free

[Chorus]
             Dm                     Bb
And it's the end of the line of the final journey
C                   Dm
Enemies leaving the past
                                 Bb
And it's American troops and the German army
C                   Dm
Joining together at last

F                    C                         Dm
From the foot of the Alps to the shores of the sea
F                    C                         Dm
From the foot of the Alps to the shores of the sea
F                    C                           Dm
From the home of the brave, from the land of the free

From the foot of the Alps to the shores of the sea

And it's American troops and the German army
C                   Dm
