Anyone know the lyrics for this great song >? I don't know who wrote it though !

Found this for you........ Guitar chords too

[SIZE=7]10 Brave men



Em G C Em

Bobby Sands was his name, He Died for the cause of Freedom


G Em C Em

A hunger strike they commenced, To fight for the right as Freemen


C G Em C

In the Summer of 81' Ten brave men, the Crown they took on


Em C G Em C A

The ten were prisoners of war...But Englands leaders let them die one by one


G Em C G Em

The year they murdered Ten Brave men, and the Black flags were flying'


G Em C G Em

The Year they murdered Ten Brave men, and all the people were crying' They sang


G Em A C

"Lord we have lost our son's, now we'll make sure this war is won"



Bobby was elected MP, and one day he said to me,

"People must fight for the right to live in a land thats free"

I Got 14 years in Jail, and this hunger strike it must not fail.

The English we'll alway's detest, but they should never have taken the very best.

CHORUS:


The year they murdered Ten Brave men, and the Black flags were flying'

The Year they murdered Ten Brave men, and all the people were crying' They sang

"Lord we have lost our son's, now we'll make sure this war is won"


CHORUS:


Like His father before him, He was a workin' man

Like his Comrades beside him, He took a Rebel stand

He was a Rebel, proud and brave, but Thatcher laid him in his grave

I swear by the blood in my vains, The Irish people will someday have their say.


Chorus:


The year they murdered Ten Brave men, and the Black flags were flying'

The Year they murdered Ten Brave men, and all the people were crying' They sang,

"Lord we have lost our son's, now we'll make sure this war is won"

Thanks but thats not the same song I was thinking of.
This one is on Eire Og, Live at Tully's

ok .... I'll find them

A cloud of smoke, came over Belfast
Another man had died
And I watched in shock and disbelief
As grown men stood and cried
But they're tears of anger, soon turned to tears of pride
When they realised the sacrafice of the then brave men who have died

Chorus
Ten Brave Men
Those ten brave men
God and Ireland dont forget
Those ten brave men
Ten brave men

Stones and bottles and binlids
Announced the death of each brave man
Joe McDonnell, Frances Hughes And MP Bobby Sands
Women came out together
And they knelt down side by side
And prayed God and Ireland dont forget, those ten brave men who died

Chorus
Ten Brave Men
Those ten brave men
God and Ireland dont forget
Those ten brave men
Ten brave men

Ten Brave Men.
A cloud of smoke came over Belfast, another man had died,
And I watched in shock and disbelief as grown men stood and cried,
But their tears of anger soon turned to tears of pride,
As they realised the sacrifice of the ten brave men who died.

(chorus)

Ten brave men, those ten brave men,
God and Ireland don't forget those ten brave men,
Ten brave men.

Stones and bottles and binlids announced the death of each brave man,
Joe McDonnell, Francis Hughes and MP Bobby Sands,
Women came out together and they knelt down side by side,
And they prayed "God and Ireland
don't forget those ten brave men who died."
