Ballad of the Green Beret chords
SSgt Barry Sadler
C G C
Fighting soldiers from the sky;
G C
fearless men who jump and die
F C
Men who mean, just what they say;
G C
the brave men of the Green Beret
C G C
Silver wings upon their chest;
G C
these are men, America's best
F C
One hundred men we'll test today;
G C
but only three win the Green Beret
C G C
Trained to live, off nature's land;
G C
trained in combat, hand to hand
F C
Men who fight, by night and day;
G C
courage take, from the Green Beret
C G C
Silver wings upon their chest;
G C
these are men, America's best
F C
One hundred men we'll test today;
G C
but only three win the Green Beret
C G C
Back at home, a young wife waits;
G C
her Green Beret has met his fate
F C
He has died, for those oppressed;
G C
leaving her this last request
C G C
Put silver wings on my son's chest;
G C
make him one of America's best
F C
He'll be a man they'll test one day;
G C F C
have him win the Green Beret
