representation of this song.
Please comment and rate. Levellheaded
[G]Over the mountains
And [Am]over the seas
By [C]Hurcules [G]transporter
To [C]fight the [Am]Afghani
With a [C]rifle in my [G]hand
To [C]set the [Am]country free
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
[G]So I fixed up the alarm
And [Am]broken half way in
When a [C]security guard [G]appears
And [C]busts me on the [Am]chin
He [C]kicks me round and [G]says
Do you [C]know the shit youre [Am]in
I said [G]I was on me [C]arse mate
Meant [D]no offence to [G]him
[G]Over the mountains
And [Am]over the seas
By [C]Hurcules [G]transporter
To [C]fight the [Am]Afghani
With a [C]rifle in my [G]hand
To [C]set the [Am]country free
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
[G]I know Ive let you down babe
[Am]Trying to make ends meat
When I [C]met this recruiting [G]sergeant
By the [C]courthouse on the [Am]street
He [C]said youre a dis[G]grace boy
And [C]thats youre fucking [Am]crime
Then [G]somebody got the [C]drinks in
And I [D]signed on the dotted [G]line
[G]Over the mountains
And [Am]over the seas
By [C]Hurcules [G]transporter
To [C]fight the [Am]Afghani
With a [C]rifle in my [G]hand
To [C]set the [Am]country free
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
[G]Now Im sucking dust in Helmand
[Am]Dug into Lashkar Gar
Where the [C]local weed and [G]opium
Beats [C]any British [Am]bar
I [C]know as we lay there [G]dreaming
Im [C]still in the pay of [Am]thieves
And Im [G]rushing back to be [C]with you
Up[D]on this desert [G]breeze
[G]Over the mountains
And [Am]over the seas
By [C]Hurcules [G]transporter
To [C]fight the [Am]Afghani
With a [C]rifle in my [G]hand
To [C]set the [Am]country free
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
Instrumental break
G, Am, C, G, C, Am, C, G, C, Am, G, C, D, G
[G]Dont follow me to die boys
In [Am]bloody Kandahar
With the [C]eerie glow of [G]tracers
Lighting [C]every wretched [Am]scar
And [C]say a prayer for [G]me
And [C]cry each year this [Am]day
So if you [G]see a recruiting [C]sergeant boys
[D]Run, run a[G]way
[G]Over the mountains
And [Am]over the seas
By [C]Hurcules [G]transporter
To [C]fight the [Am]Afghani
With a [C]rifle in my [G]hand
To [C]set the [Am]country free
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
[G]Over the mountains
And [Am]over the seas
By [C]Hurcules [G]transporter
To [C]fight the [Am]Afghani
With a [C]rifle in my [G]hand
To [C]set the [Am]country free
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
Its your [G]picture in my [C]pocket
That means [D]everything to [G]me
