[Em] [Bm]
[Em] [Bm] [G] [Em]
[Bm] [G] [D]
Listen old soldier [A] wherever [F#m] you are
[G] Hills [D] or the valleys come near [A] or come far
They [D] say youth is a treasure [A] we waste when [F#m] we're young
[G] Come down from [D] the place [A] where your medals are [Em] hung
[G] You're forever
[A] returning [D] and learning [Bm] to fight
You [G] feel just like an [A] old [D] soldier
[G]
This [Bm] [G] [Bm]
[G] [D] an old soldier [A] cuz time doesn't [F#m] wait
The [G]
moon's on [D] your shoulder
And the hour [A] is late
[D] There's something inside
[A] still [F#m] calls out to
Then [G] you won't fade [D] away
[A] Whatever [Em] you do
[G] You're forever [A] beginning [D] barely winning the fight
[Bm] Feel [G] just like [A] an old [D] soldier
You're [G]
not getting [A] no younger that much is [Em] true now
[G] But you still got that [A] hunger
burning in [Em] you now
[G] So what do [A] you do [D] now?
What [A] [F#m]
[G] [A] [Em]
[Bm] [G] do you [D] do now?
[Em] [Bm] [G] [D] This an old soldier [A] to the sound
[F#m] Too [G] many [D] battles
[A] too many
There's [D] only one [A] thing that you've learned [F#m] in defeat
So [G] losing [D] is bitter
[A] And victory [Em] is sweet
[G] Yeah, you're always
[A] [D] unraveling and traveling
[Bm] Feel
[G] just like an [D] old soldier
[G] [D] You [G] feel just like [A] an old soldier
Just [Bm] [G] [Bm] [Em] [Bm] an [Em] [Bm] [G] [Bm] [Em]
[Bm] [G] old [Em] soldier
[D] [G] [D]
[Bm] [G] [D] [Em]
