Mudcat Cafe (www.deltablues.com) has the lyrics, but not the tune.  Since I 
don't know how to mail tablature, stay with me on this.... Assuming the 
song is in C, the melody is:

E        E        E         C         D        D         C
Figh- ting     sol-      diers    from   the       sky

E          G          G           G          A         G          G
Fear-   less      men       who      jump     and      die

^C       ^C         ^C           F           A          G          G
Men     who      mean    just       what      they      say

E          E          E          D           vG        vA         vB 
        C
The    brave    men      of           the      Green     Be-        rets.

Where ^C is C above the prime octave and vG, vA, and vB are below the prime 
octave.

It's pretty monotonous, but then Barry Sadler was known more for his 
writing than his snappy tunes.

Hope this helps.			Adelaide
