Biography:
Sabaton is a Swedish power metal band from Falun. The band's main lyrical themes are based on war, historical battles, and acts of heroism—the name is a reference to a sabaton, knight's foot armor. The armor and battle theme is heard in the albums Primo Victoria, Attero Dominatus, The Art of War, Coat of Arms, Carolus Rex, Heroes, The Last Stand, and The Great War in which most of the songs contain these motifs. Their latest album, The Great War, was released on 19 July 2019, with the songs all being based on World War I.

A Dm Bb F C
[Verse]
Dm
Hear them whisper,
F C Dm
voices from the other side
Hear them calling
A Dm Bb F C
former foes now friends are resting side by side
Dm
They will never
F C Dm
leave our hearts or fade away
Dm
live forever
A Dm Bb F C
they were far too young to die in such a way
[Bridge]
Dm Bb
how many wasted lives
F C
how many dreams did fade away
Dm Bb
broken promises
F C
they won't be coming home
Gm Eb
Oh mothers wipe your tears
Bb F
your sons will rest a million years
Gm Eb
found their peace at last
Bb F
as foe turned to friend
C
and forgive
Bb
And they knew they'd die
[Chorus]
F C Dm C Dm
Galli-po-li

Such waste of life
F C Dm C Dm

C Dm Dm F Bb F C
Dreams of freedom turned to dust
[Verse]
Dm
Hell is waiting
F C Dm
where the ocean meets the sand
Cliffs of burden
A Dm Bb F C
where the soldiers rushed into a certain death
Dm
At the shoreline
F C Dm
Blood of heroes stains the land
light a candle
A Dm Bb F C
One for each of them who fought and died in vain
[Bridge]
Dm Bb
There is no enemy
F C
There is no victory
Dm Bb F C
Only boys who lost their lives in the sand
Gm Eb
Young men were sacrificed
Bb F
Their names are carved in stone and kept alive
Gm Eb Bb F C
and forever we will honour the memory of them
Bb
And they knew they would die
[Chorus]
