_ Two days past 18 he was waiting for the bus in his army green [A] sat down in a booth at a cafe
[E] There gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gave him a smile and said would you mind sitting down for a [B] while and talking to me?
[E] I'm feeling a little
_ She [B] said I'm off in an [A] hour and I know where we [E] can go _ _
So they went down and they sat on the pier he said I bet you got a boyfriend, but I don't care
I got [A] no one to send a letter [E] to _ _
[D] Would you mind if I [E] send one back here to you
_ [Em] _
_ [C#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] To him
Him they [B] told her waiting for the love of a traveling [C#m] soldier
Our love will never [A] end
Waiting for the soldier to come back [E] again
Never more to be alone
[B] When the letter says
Soldiers coming [E] home _ _ _ _ _
So the letters came from an army camp in
California and Vietnam [A] and he told her of his [E] heart it might be love and all of the things
She was so scared of said when it's getting kind of rough over here
I think of that day sitting down at the [A] pier and I closed my eyes to see a [E] pretty smile _ _
[D] Well, don't worry, but I [A] won't be able to ride [E] for a while _ _
_ [C#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] _ To him
[B] Waiting for the love of a traveling [C#m] soldier
Our love will never [A] end waiting for the soldier to come back [E] again
Never more to be alone [B] when the letter says
Soldiers [E] coming home _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[E] Then one Friday night at a football game
Lordsburg said in the anthem [A] sang a man said folks you bow your [E] heads for a list of low
Vietnam death _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Crying all alone under the stand was the piccolo player the Martian man one name read
But nobody really cared _
[D] Except the pretty little [A] girl
_ [E] _ _ _
_ [C#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[E] Do you
[B] Waiting for the love of a traveling [C#m] soldier
Our love will never [A] end
Waiting for the soldier to come back [E] again
Never more to be alone [B] when the letter says the soldiers [C#m] come in
_ Right, [A] I'm never gonna hold that hand of [E] another guy do you for him?
They [B] told her waiting for the love of a traveling soldier
[C#m] Our love will never [A] end waiting for the soldier to come [E] back again
Never more to be alone [B] when the letter says _
the soldiers
coming home _ _
