When the Tigers Broke Free
 --------------------------

         C                    Gsus                C
 It was just before dawn one miserable morning in black forty-four

 C
 When the foreward commander was told to sit tight,

                          F/C        C
 When they asked that his men be withdrawn

 C
 And the generals gave thanks, as the other ranks

 Gsus                 C
 Held back the enemy tanks for a while

         C                    Gsus
 And the Anzio Bridgehead was held for the price

      C
 Of a few hundred ordinary lives



 C                 G                    C                       G
 And kind old King George sent Mother a note when he heard that Father was gone

 C           G                      C
 It was, I recall, in the form of a scroll with gold leaf and all

 C
 And I found it one day in a drawer of old photographs hidden away

 C                                Gsus
 And my eyes still grow damp to remember

             C
 His Majesty signed with his own rubber stamp

 C                G                             C
 It was dark all around, there was frost on the ground

                       G
 When the Tigers broke free

 C
 And no-one survived from the Royal Fusiliers, Company "C"

 G                    C                   G                         C
 They were all left behind,  most of them dead  -  the rest of them dying

 C                  G                    C
 And that's how the high command took my daddy from me
