Never Returned

A

A
He dropped outta school when he was 16
         E
He said: "Mum and Dad I'm gonna be a Royal Marine"
      B
So he went down to the AFCO
    D
and signed his name to the Queen's payroll
A
Basic training went by in the breeze
E
Didn't break a sweat, he passed it with ease
B
A lot dropped out but not our boy
     D
The next thing he knows, he is on foreign soil
A
Shoved to the front with a gun in his hand
    E
The boy that went out came back a different man
    B
His eyes once bright, now seem dull
D                     A
What he saw, he never told
A
For six month at a time he's on the front line
     E
then back home again to see his family and friends
    B
But time moves quick and he's off again
D
that's the last time we’ll - see - him

D                  B
Don't know what he saw
   A     G#     F#
He never said a word
        D                   E       A
Coz the boy that went away never re-turned

A
Was it worth all the broken hearts?
E
Fighting wars that ain't even ours?
B
Believe me or not but he did come back
       D
in the wooden box drapped in Union Jack...
