[G] Two days past 18 she was waiting for the bus and her army green sat down in a booth in a cafe nearby
Gave her order to a [N] guy in a thin black tie
She's a little shy so he gave her a smile and she said would you mind sitting down for a [E] while and talking to me?
I'm [G] feeling a little low
He said I'm off in [Am] an hour and I know where [D] we can go
[G] So they went down and they sat on the pier said I bet you got a girlfriend
But I don't [C] care.
I got no one
[G] to send a letter to
[F] Would you mind if [Am] I send one back [G] here to you?
[Em]
[D] I [C] cried you'll never want to hold the hand of [Em] another guy
I cried too [Am] young for him they [G] told her
[D] Waiting for the love of a traveling [A] soldier
Our [D] love will never [C] end
Waiting for the soldier to [Am] come [G] back again
Never more to be alone
[D] When the [A] letter [D] says the soldier's [G] coming home
So the letters came once a week at least from Oklahoma then the Middle [C] East
And she told him I was a soldier
I love her heart it reminds me of [G] love and all of the [C] things she was [D] so scared [G] of
She said when it's getting kind of rough over here
I think of that day sitting down at the [C] pier
And I close my eyes and [G] see your handsome smile
[F] Don't worry but I [C] won't be able to [G] write for a while
[D] [Em] I [D] cried [C] you'll never want to hold the hand of [G] another guy
I cried too young for him they [D] told her
Waiting for the love of a traveling [Em] soldier
Our love will [D] never [C] end
Waiting for the soldier to come [G] back again
Never more to be alone
[D] When the letter says the soldier's [G] coming home
[Gm] One fine day
One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem [C] sang
A man said folks would you bow your [G] head for the list of the local army dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a pinkalow [D] player in the marching [Gm] band
And one name read and [G] nobody really cried
[F] But a single [C] guy in a thin [G] black [D] tie
[Em] [D] I'm [C]
never gonna hold the hand [G] of a guy
Too young for him they [D] told her
Waiting for the love of a traveling [Em] soldier
Our love will [D] never [C] end
Waiting for the soldier to come [G] back again
Never more to be alone
