Bb D Gm |
When they poured across the border |
Bb D Gm |
I was cautioned to surrender |
Bb F |
This I could not do |
Eb Bb D Gm |
I took my gun and vanished |
Bb D Gm |
I have changed my name so often |
Bb D Gm |
I've lost my wife and children |
Bb F |
But I have many friends |
Eb Bb D Gm |
And some of them are with me |
Bb D Gm |
An old woman gave us shelter |
Bb D Gm |
Kept us hidden in the garret |
Bb F |
Then the soldiers came |
Eb Bb D Gm |
She died without a whisper |
Bb D Gm |
There were three of us this morning |
Bb D Gm |
I'm the only one this evening |
Bb F |
But I must go on |
Eb Bb D Gm |
The frontiers are my prison |
Bb D Gm |
Oh, the wind, the wind is blowing |
Bb D Gm |
Through the graves the wind is blowing |
Bb F |
Freedom soon will come |
Eb Bb D Gm |
Then we'll come from the shadows |
Bb D Gm |
Les Allemands e'taient chez moi |
Bb D Gm |
Ils me dirent, "Signe toi" |
Bb F |
Mais je n'ai pas peur |

J'ai la France entie're |

Il est mort sans surprise |
