Chords for Eric Burdon & The Animals - Sky Pilot - Long Version

He blesses the boys as they stand in line
the smell of gun grease and
Their bayonets they shine _ _
He's there to help them all that he can
_ To make them feel wanted.
He's a good [F] holy _ man

The young soldier tells them it's alright
[Cm] He knows of their fear in [Eb] the forthcoming fight
[Cm] Soon there'll be blood [Eb] and many will die
[Cm] Mothers and fathers [F] back home they will cry _ _
_ _ [Bb] Sky, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Sky, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ How can [Bb] you fly?
_ _ [Cm] You'll never reach _ _ _ [Bb] the sky _
_ _ _ _ [E] [Eb] He mumbles a prayer
And it ends with a smile
The order is given they move down the line
But he's stale behind and he'll meditate
_ [Cm] But it won't stop the [F] bleeding or ease the hate
_ [Eb] _ [E] _
[C] The [Eb] young man move out into the battle zone _
He feels good with God you're never alone _

Your soldiers of God [Eb] you must understand
_ [Cm] The fate of your country [Eb] is in your young hands
[Cm] May God give you strength [Eb] do your job real well
[Cm] If it all was worth it [F] only time it will tell _ _
_ [Cm] In the morning they return with [Eb] tears in their eyes
[Gm] [Cm] The stench of death [Eb] drifts up to the skies
