The credit for this tab goes to some unregistered dude who did version two of this song.
is identical to the Metallica version in every way because they even play the solo,
is not featured here, to the note just as james, kirk, cliff and lars did in 85-86

play "next bit" again 4 times then into verses
the verses are all played solely in the 6th string in
the same rhythm as "next bit"
 
1 Bodies  fill  the  fields   I   see
2 Barking    of    machine    gun   fire         does
3 Life  planned  out  before  my  birth
E|0--0-0-0--0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|0--0-0-0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|
 
  hungry   heroes   end.
  nothing   to  me  now
  nothing  could  I  say.
E|3--3-3-3--3--3--3--3-3-3-3-|2--2-2-2--2--2--2-2-2-2-|
 
  No one   to   play   soldier   now,
  Sounding   of   the   clock   that   ticks       get
  Had   no   chance   to   see   myself
E|0--0-0-0--0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|0--0-0-0--0--0--0-0-0-0-|
 
  no one   to   pretend.
  used   to   it  somehow.
  moulded   day   by   day.
E|3--3-3-3--3--3--3--3-3-3-3-|7--7-7-7--7--7--7-7-7-7-|
 
the second half of each verse follows the same pattern
 
Running blind through killing fields,
bred to kill them all.
Victim of what said should be,
a servant till I fall

      Soldier       boy,                made   of    clay

then with rhythm fig 1
Back to the front. You will do what I say, when I say.
Back to the front. You will die when I say you must die.
Back to the front. You coward, you servant, you blind man.
(then some palm muted open E-string strumming)

then with rhythm figure 2:
Why...  am I dying?   Kill...  have no fear.
Lie...  live off lying.  Hell...  hell is here.
 
then a big solo mostly played over E5 with occaisionally a C5 and maybe a D5
 
then with rhythm figure 2 again:
Why...  am I dying?   Kill...  have no fear.
Lie...  live off lying.  Hell...  hell is here.
			 I was born for dying....

the tab is great, well done, but the lyrics need editing. uve not included lyrics such as 'looking back i realise, nothing have i done, left to die with only friend, alone i clench my gun'
Perfect
