Sortie after sortie
Dm C
Saw Nazi invasion off

Just as airmen should
Dm C
Our bravery meant Hitler

Wouldn't be back for good
No, no
[Chorus]
C G
We beat the Fuhrer
Bb
Without us frequent flyers
F
Your life would be poorer
Yeah yeah!

Britain securer
Bb F
Our stories of heroics will forever endure
Wow, yeah yeah!
So I think you'll find its true...

was so much owed, by so many, to so few." - Winston Churchill
