Gm           Eb
Kill, fight, die
       F                     Bb
That's what a soldier should do
             Cm                  Bb
Top of their game, earning their name
              Eb Bb  F
They were the De-vil dogs
     Eb    F
In a war machine
              Eb  F   Gm Eb F     Bb
They were the U - S - A  marines

[Verse]
Gm
1918, USA intervene
      F                      Gm
Until now they were mainly observing
Gm                              Eb
There in the wheat fields and a small piece of land
     Bb                        D
Is a battle that'll write history

[Pre-chorus]
Cm
Five times attacked, and then five times repelled
        Bb                          F         D
And the sixth time, they managed to break the line
Cm
Heart of the corps and a part of their lore
    D
The deadliest weapon on Earth

[Chorus]
Gm           Eb
Kill, fight, die
       F                     Bb
That's what a soldier should do
             Cm                  Bb
Top of their game, earning their name
              Eb Bb  F
They were the De-vil dogs
     Eb    F
In a war machine
              Eb  F   Gm Eb F     Bb
They were the U - S - A  marines

[Verse]
Gm
Dogs lead ahead and attack through the lead
       F                     Gm
Put to test at the battle of Belleau
Gm                      Eb
Clearing the forest and advance through the trees
         Bb                       D
It's the end of the war that's in sight

[Pre-chorus]
Cm
Hill 142, it's a final breakthrough
         Bb                     F     D
It's the key to controlling the battlefield
Cm
Second to none, a marine and a gun
        D
And the foes run in fear of their name

[Chorus]
Gm           Eb
Kill, fight, die
       F                     Bb
That's what a soldier should do
             Cm                  Bb
Top of their game, earning their name
              Eb Bb  F
They were the De-vil dogs
     Eb    F
In a war machine
              Eb  F   Gm Eb F     Bb
They were the U - S - A  marines

[Bridge]
   Bb                          F
In times they are needed, such times they appear
       Cm                   Gm    F
When a leader has fallen, a hero arise
       Bb                 F
And inspire the lost into glorious deeds that
      Gm          Cm             Gm         F
Would give them a name that live on to this day

        Bb                          F
When in times they are needed, such times they appear
       Cm                   Gm    F
When a leader has fallen, a hero arise
       Bb                 F
And inspire the lost into glorious deeds that
      Gm          Cm             Gm         F
Would give them a name that live on to this day

Gm                Eb              F                     Gm
    "Come on, you sons of bitches, do you wanna live forever?"

Cm
Second to none, a marine and a gun
        Bb                            F       D
Raising hell as they're fighting like dogs of war

Heart of the corps and a part of the lore

The deadliest weapon on Earth

Kill, fight, die

And then always are the U - S - A  marines
