Tin Soldier  Stiff Little Fingers



[E]He joined up to [A]get a job and sh[D]ow he wasn't s[A]cared
[E]Swapped boy scout ha[A]t for army cap, [D]he thought he'd be [A]prepared
[Gbm]At the age of [B]17 he w[A]as forced to c[E]hoose
[Gbm]At the age of [B]21 he's [A]in Catch [A]22
[E]  [E]  [E]  [E]                               
[E]He joined up for j[A]ust three years, it se[D]emed a small amo[A]unt
[E]But they didn't te[A]ll him that the fi[D]rst two didn't cou[A]nt
[Gbm]At the age of 1[B]7 h[A]ow was he to k[E]now
[Gbm]That at the age of 2[B]1 h[A]e'd still have one to[A] go?
(Chorus:)
[E]Tin soldier, h[A]e signed away his name
[D]Tin soldier, n[A]o chance for cash or fame
[E]Tin soldier, n[A]ow he know the truth
[D]Tin soldier, h[A]e signed away his youth

[E]  [E]  [E]  [E]                               
[E]He joined up cos D[A]ad knew best, to d[D]o right by his so[A]n
[E]And now he hates and c[A]ounts the dates that mark ti[D]me on square o[A]ne
[Gbm]At the age of 1[B]7 h[A]e did as he was [E]told
[Gbm]Now at the age of [B]21 t[A]in still won't turn to g[A]old

(Chorus)

[E]  [E]  [E]  [E]  [E]  [E]  [E]  [E]                       
[E]If at the age of 17 you fall in line too soon
[E]Then at the age of 21 you'll still march to their tune

Solo: Gbm, B, E,A

[E]Tin soldier, [A]you signed away your name
[D]Tin soldier, [A]no chance for cash or fame
[E]             [A]                        
Tin soldier, you never see the truth
[D]Tin soldier, y[A]ou sign away your youth
[E]Tin soldier, y[A]ou go and join the queue
[D]Tin soldier, d[A]o what they want you to
[E]Tin soldier, t[A]hey take away your name
[D]Tin soldier, t[A]hey treat you all the same
[E]Sign aw[A]ay your li[B]fe

Outro: E E E E
