[A] Two days past eighteen, he was waiting for the bus and his army [D] green sat down in a booth
At the cafe [A] there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gave him a smile and he said, would you mind sitting down for [D] a while and talking to me?
I'm feeling [A] a little low
[Am] She [G] said I'm off in [D] an hour and I don't know where [A] we can go
So they walked out and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I [D] don't care, I got no one
So she sent [A] a letter to him
[G] Would you mind [D] if I sent one back [A] here to you?
[F#m]
[E] [D] [A] Father guide me, in the [E] cold and when I travel as [F#m] a soldier
Our love [E] will never [D] end, waiting for the soldier to come [A] back again
Nevermore will I be [E] alone when the letter says, a [A] soldier's coming home
So the letters came from an army camp in California then Vietnam
[D] And he told her of his heart, it might [A] be love in all of the things he was so scared of
Except when it's getting kind of rough over here
I think of that day sitting down at the [D] pier and I close my eyes and see her [A] pretty smile
[G] Don't worry but I [D] won't be able to [A] write for a while
[F#m] I [D] cried, never gonna hold the hand [A] of a guy too young
But then they [E] told her, we love the traveling [F#m] soldier
Our love will [E] never [D] end, waiting for the soldier to come [A] back again
Nevermore will I be alone [E] when the letter says, a soldier's [A] coming home

[G] [D] [A]
One Friday night at a football game, the Lord's Prayer said in the anthem
Sang a man said folks, would you bow your heads for a list of local [B] Vietnam [A] dead
Crying all alone under the stands was a piccolo player in the marching band
And [D] one named Red, and nobody [A] really cared
[G] But a pretty little [D] girl, [A] bowing her [F#m] head
I'm [E] [D]
[A] too young, remember they [E] told her, we love the [F] traveling [F#m] soldier
[E] [D] Waiting for the soldier to come [A] back again
