	A7
I fought in a war and I	left my friends behind me

	C	B7
To go	looking for the enemy, and it	wasn't very long

	Em	A7
	Before I would stand with a	nother boy in front of me

	C	B7	D
And a	corpse that just fell into me, with	bullets flying around

	G	A7
And I re	minded myself of the words you said when we were	getting on

	C	B7
And I	bet you're making shells back home for a	steady boy to wear

	G	A7
Round his	neck, well it won't hurt to think of	you as if you're waiting

	C	B7
For this letter to	arrive, you will be hear	quite a while

	Em	A7
	I fought in a war and I	left my friends behind me

	C	B7
To go	looking for the enemy, and it w	asn't very long

	Em	A7
	Before I found out that the	sickness there ahead of me

	C	B7
Went	beyond the bedsit infamy, of the	decade gone before

	G	A7
And I re	minded myself of the words you said when we were	getting on

	C	B7
And I	bet you're making shells back home for a	steady boy to wear

	G	A7
Round his	neck, well it won't hurt to think of	you as if you're waiting

	C	B7
For this letter to	arrive, you will be hear	quite a while

Break: Em, A7, C, B7 x2

	Em	A7
	I fought in a war, and I	didn't know when it would end

	C	B7
It	stretched before me infinitly, I	really couldn't think

	Em	A7
	Of the day beyond now, keep your	head down pal

	C	B7
Theres trouble	plenty in this hour, this day, I can see	hope I can see the

light

	G	A7
And I re	minded myself of the words you said when we were	getting on

	C	B7
And I	bet you're making shells back home for a	steady boy to wear

	G	A7
Round his	neck, well it won't hurt to think of	you as if you're waiting

	C	B7
For this letter to	arrive, you will be hear	quite a while.

End with Em, A7, C, B7
