You can hear it when you listen. Verse 1: Lonely soldier go home G Cadd9 G Lonely but never alone Good eyes see nothing to shoot Good feet feel good giving up good boots Verse 2: G Cadd9 G Cadd9 So ask your father how’d you fall G Cadd9 G So ask your father how’d you fall Like a leaf sitting on the ground Good for nothing except kicking around Chorus: G Cadd9 G She died with her hands stretched out Cadd9 G She died with a hungry mouth Cadd9 G She died with her mind full of doubt D/Dsus2/Dsus4/D and thoughts of weakening Cadd9 G so may your river never dry Cadd9 G and may your mouth never lie Cadd9 G may you be satisfied to never know why Sometimes someone just wants to die and then on with the next verse as before. Comments welcome.
