Where No Monument Stands

Am          C               G              D       Am
This is the field where the battle did not happen
              C          G        D  Am
Where the unknown soldier did not die
            C          G             D
This is the field where grass joined hands
        G         D
Where no monument stands
        C       G        D         G
And the only heroic thing is the sky
        C       G        D         G    C   D   C
And the only heroic thing is the sky


          D                C
Birds fly here without any sound
                D                 C
Unfolding their wings across the open
          D         G                     C
No people killed, or were killed, on this ground
            Am            C       D
Hallowed by neglect and an air so tame that
C          Am         C               D
People celebrate it by forgetting its name


Am          C               G              D       Am
This is the field where the battle did not happen
              C          G        D  Am
Where the unknown soldier did not die
            C          G             D
This is the field where grass joined hands
        G         D
Where no monument stands
        C       G        D         G
And the only heroic thing is the sky
        C       G        D         G
And the only heroic thing is the sky
