Verse:

A#m              C7
Captured clandestine
Fm               Cm
Crawled into the lights
C#         G#              F#
He knew he was in for a shoeing
Ebm                    Ab    A
Just wasn't to be his night

A#m                      C7
Dragged out of the frozen Rhine
Fm                            Cm
For the Motherland and the Third Reich
C#         G#                F#
A toeing's as good as a shoeing
Ebm                       Ab   A
When it's not to be your night


Chorus:

A#m
Tread carefully, so carefully
A
Upon the drifting ice
Dmaj7
Caught behind enemy lines
E    F
In 1939

A#m
For Germany
A
he sacrificed his life
Dmaj7
Caught behind enemy lines
E      F    Am
There in 1939

Verse:

A#m                   C7
Kids knee-deep in rubble
Fm                     Cm
London urchins grey with dust
C#          G#                F#
Packed off ours in evacuations
Ebm
To farmers' wives

Green and pleasant lives
     Ab              A
Far from the doodlebugs
A#m                         C7
Nanna Doll she still remembers
Fm                     Cm
Leaving town in worn-out shoes
C#              G#            F#
Now she's back out west in sheltered accommodations
Ebm                            Ab         A
Homes for the old where pills aren't the only blues

Chorus:

A#m
Tread carefully, so carefully
A
Upon the drifting ice
Dmaj7
Staring blank into the TV guide
E     F
In 2009

A#m                   A
How it's hurting me, I've only seen her twice
Dmaj7
Since you went west for the second time
E       F
Since 1939
