Operation Citadel Lyrics & Tabs by Decaying
Operation Citadel
guitar chords lyrics
Eight thousand tanks clashing
In the Operation Zitadelle
A German offensive
To help retrieve the initiative in the east
The largest armoured battle
Campaing launched in 1943
After the crushing defeat of Stalingrad
Pin them down, once and for all
Planning on encirclement
But suprise factor was long lost
Good soviet intelligence
Preparations were bold
The line of defense
Built to slow the spearheads down
Anti-tank, vast minefields
The line of defense
Built to slow the spearheads down
Anti-tank, vast minefields
With blitzkrieg Wehrmacht again marches forth
The northern operation is a failure
Germans fell short
In the southern face:
The battle of Prokhorovka rages on
Merciless outburst of lead
Steel rain from every direction
As motorized battalions collide
On Russian soil
When the stakes were high
Soon short of fuel, out of armor
As waffen-SS spearheads meet
The Russian superioty, T-34
Tide finally turns
The operation is called off
Axis fails to conquer
In the battle of Kursk
