[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ With the twilight colors falling and the evening laying shadows, hidden memories come stealing
[Eb] from my mind.
_ And I feel my own heart beating out, the simple joy of living, and I wonder how I ever [Ab] was that kind.
But the wild road I was rambling was always out there calling, and you said a hundred
times I [Eb] should have died.
_ Then you reached down and touched me and lifted me up with you, so I believe it was the road
I was [Ab] meant to ride.
I'm [Db] like a soldier [Eb] getting over [Ab] the war.
I'm [Db] like a young man [Eb] getting over [Ab] his crazy days.
[Db] Like a bandit [Eb] getting over [Ab] his lawless [Fm] ways.
[Db] I don't [Eb] have to do that anymore.
[Ab] _ I'm [Db] like a soldier [Eb] getting over [Ab] the war.
There _ _ _ _ _ are nights I don't remember, and pain that's been forgotten, and a lot of things
I choose not to [Eb] recall.
_ There are faces that come to me in my darkest secret memories, faces that I wish would not
come [Ab] back at all.
But in my dreams parade of lovers from the other times and places, there's not one that
matters now no [Eb] matter who.
_ I'm just [Bb] thankful for the journey and that I [Eb] survived the battles and that my spoils
of victory [Ab] is you.
I'm like a [Db] soldier getting [Eb] over the [Ab] war.
_ I'm like [Db] a young man getting [Eb] over [Ab] his crazy days.
[Db] Like a bandit getting [Eb] over [Ab] his lawless [Fm] ways.
[Db] Every day [Eb] gets better than the [Ab] day before.
I'm [Db] like a soldier [Eb] getting over [Ab] the war. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ With the twilight colors falling and the evening laying shadows, hidden memories come stealing
[Eb] from my mind.
