The Trooper by Iron Maiden

You'll take my (1)________ but I'll take yours too
You'll (2)________ your musket but I'll run you through
So (3)________ you're waiting for the next attack
You'd better stand there's no turning back.

The bugle sounds and the (4)____________ begins
But on (5)________ battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death.

The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty (6)________ of the Russian guns
And as we race (7)______________ the human wall
The screams of pain as my (8)________________ fall

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so (9)________ yet so far away
We were meant to fight another day.

We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below.

And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body's numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan
