INTRO: Dm  C  F  (4x)

Dm             C               F
Seven thousand men crossed the river today
    Dm           C          F
And none of them came back across
 Dm       C          F
[All lost there by] Isonzo today
          Dm           C               F     Dm  C  F    Dm  C  F
And we'll send more as soon as they're gone


 Dm                C          F
[ ? ] our loss too old and so fair
       Dm         C          F
On the day of our wedding it rained
          Dm         C          F
Now, they told me to cross the Isonzo today
      Dm          C        F  
And I shall never see her again


CHORUS:
      Am                          C
Three days, three days passed the river they set
    Am      F         C
The city of Trentine alight
Am                           C
Take it, you can, you'll be among her best men
        Am                          G
And the nation will watch you Do or Die


INSTRUMENTAL: Dm  C  F  (4x)


Dm       C            F
Not even make it, ten minutes or so
        Dm          C         F
We were cut down by enemy fire
Dm             C         F
Wounded on the banks of Isonzo today
        Dm          C           F
And I'm glad no one can hear me cry


    Dm        C           F
The river ran red and the stench of the dead
         Dm          C           F
Were the last senses left to the mind
Dm       C          F
Carried away on the gurney that day
         Dm            C          F
Crossing back o'er the river I died


CHORUS:
      Am                         C
Three years, three years on that river they fought
Am        F              C
Many more men lost their lives
   Am             C
In 1918 there was finally peace
           Am                    G
While in a graveyard in Venice I lie


OUTRO: Dm  C  F  (4x)
