Bm  A  Bm
With all the clarity of dream
ABm
The sky so blue, the grass so green
Bm   A     Bm
The rank and file and the navy blue
EmAF#m      Bm
The deep and strong, the straight and true

Bm    A   Bm
The blue line they got the given sign
    A      Bm
The belts and boots march forward in time
Bm  ABm
The wood and leather the club and shield
EmAF#m      Bm
Swept like a wave across the battlefield

Bm      ABm
Now with all the clarity of dream
ABm
The blood so red, the grass so green
ABm
The gleam of spur on chestnut flank
Em AF#mBm
The cavalry did burst upon the ranks

BmABm
Oh the iron will and iron hand
         ABm
In england's green and pleasant land
   A    Bm
No music for the shameful scene
Em    AF#m    Bm
That night they said it had even shocked the queen

BmABm
Well alas we've seen it all before
Bm    A    Bm
Knights in armour, days of yore
Bm    ABm
The same old fears and the same old crimes
Em   A   F#m     Bm
We haven't changed since ancient times


It sounds allright if you just make some fingerplay between the verses and just
simplifies it doing the verses

My suggestion is something like this:

(left hand holds Bm - only right hand fingerplay, keep playing this over 
when you shift the chords, it will sound allright)
