[F#m] [B] [E]
Right now I feel like [F#m] a forgotten soldier [B] I've been eight hours [E] on the road
Doesn't anybody see [F#m] me standing here in my [E] soldier's coat?
[F#m] And rain [B] ain't kindly to [E] weary men [F#m] And passing cars look snug [B] and warm
[E] There ain't no comforts [F#m] for a forgotten soldier [B] Standing in [E] the storm
[B] Hey, I think I'll read your crumpled [E] letter one more time
[B] To reassure me that our love has [E] stood the test
[B] Hey, the words you wrote are poetry [E] to me, that is
[F#m] And I cherish them and hold them [B] to my breast
[E] Deep down I know that [F#m] I'm no forgotten soldier [B] Though you're a million [E] stars away
Soon friendly headlights [F#m] will be shining down [B] And slowing down [E] for me
[F#m] And [B] there will be a [E] place to close my eyes [F#m] And almost feel [B] the kiss
[E] Of lips that tell me [F#m] I'm no forgotten soldier [B] Somewhere in [E] the mist
[B] Hey, I think I'll read your crumpled letter one more time
To reassure me that our love has [E] stood the test
Hey, [B] the words you wrote are poetry [E] to me, that is
And [F#m] I cherish them and hold them [B] to my breast
[E] So when I feel [F#m] like a forgotten soldier And [B] when the night is [E] extra long
That crumpled letter [F#m] is my inspiration [B] The words just push [E] me on
[F#m] They wash my blues [E] away with memories [F#m] That we will soon renew
[E] And then I won't be [F#m] a forgotten soldier [B] When I'm home [E] with you
And then I won't be [F#m] a forgotten soldier [B] When I'm home [E] with you
No, I won't be [F#m] a forgotten soldier [B] When I'm home [E] with you
Right now I feel like [F#m] a forgotten soldier [B] I've been eight hours [E] on the road
Doesn't anybody see [F#m] me standing here in my [E] soldier's coat?
[F#m] And rain [B] ain't kindly to [E] weary men [F#m] And passing cars look snug [B] and warm
[E] There ain't no comforts [F#m] for a forgotten soldier [B] Standing in [E] the storm
