 Hi! My second time posting a Sting song. If anyone wants me to try
 to figure out anymore from Sting just holler!

In  position pluck the three top strings.

 Young men and soldiers, nineteen fourteen.

 Marching through countries they'd  never seen

 Virgins with rifles, a game of charades

 All for a children's crusade

 Pawns in the game are not victims of chance
 Strewn on the fields of Belgium and France
 Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
 All of those young lives betrayed

 The children of England would never be slaves

 They're trapped on the wire and dying in waves

 The Flower of England face down in the mud

 And stained in the blood of a whole generation

 Corpulent generals safe behind lines
 History's lessons drowned in red wine
 Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
 All of those young lives betrayed

 Instrumental solo

 Bass line during instrumental is:

 Repeat Chorus

 Midnight in Soho nineteen eighty-four
 Fixing in door ways, opium slaves
 Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
 All of those young lives betrayed
 All for a children's crusade.

 Fade.

 If you have any corrections or comments don't hesitate to
 send them to me,

                   --Akira Nakahara(using my brother's account)

 Marching through countries they'd  never seen
 Virgins with rifles, a game of charades
 All for a children's crusade

 Pawns in the game are not victims of chance
 Strewn on the fields of Belgium and France
 Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade

 The Flower of England face down in the mud
 And stained in the blood of a whole generation

 Midnight in Soho nineteen eighty-four
