[F] _ _ _ Sam Stone came home [Bb] to the wife and family
[C] After serving in the conflict [F] overseas
And the time that he served [Bb] had shattered all his nerves
[C] Left a [Bb] little shrapnel in [F] his knee
But [Bb] the morphine eased the pain
And the grass grew around his brain
[G] And gave him all the confidence [C] he lacked
_ [G] With a purple heart and a monkey on [C] his back
_ [F] There's a hole in daddy's arm [Gm] where all the money goes
_ _ [Bb] Jesus Christ died for [C] nothing, I suppose
[F] Little pictures have big ears
[Dm] Don't stop to count the years
[G] And sweet songs never last too [C] long on broken radios
[F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Sam Stone's welcome home [Bb] didn't last too long
_ [C] Went to work, he spent [F] his last dime
_ And Sammy took to stealing [Bb] when he got that empty feeling
[C] For a hundred dollar [Bb] habit without [F] overtime
_ _ [Bb] And the gold rode through his veins like thousand railroad trains
[G] And eased his mind in the hours [C] that he chose
While [G] the kids ran around wearing other [C] people's clothes
There's [F] a hole in daddy's arm [Gm] where all the money goes
_ _ [Bb] Jesus Christ died for [C] nothing, I suppose
[F] Little pictures have big ears
[Dm] Don't stop to count the years
And [G] sweet songs never last too long [C] on broken [E] radios
[F] Sam _ _ Stone was [Bb] alone when he popped his last balloon _
[C] Climbing walls while sitting in [F] a chair
_ And he played his last request while [Bb] the room smelt like death
[C] With an overdose [F] hovering in the air _
[Bb] All the life he'd lost was fun
Now there's nothing to be done
[G] The trade is home that he bought on the [C] GI Bill _
[G] For a flag-draped casket on a local [C] hero's hill _ _
[F] There's a hole in daddy's arm where [Gm] all the money goes _
_ [Bb] Jesus Christ died for [C] nothing, I suppose
Little [F] pictures have big ears
[Dm] Don't stop to count the [G] years
And sweet songs never last too [C] long on broken [Eb] radios
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _
