Verse 2:
Em A
I fought in a war and I left my friends behind me
C B
To go looking for the enemy, and it wasnt very long
Em A
Before I would stand with another boy in front of me
C B
And a corpse that just fell into me, with the bullets flying round...
Chorus 1:
G Am
And I reminded myself of the words you said when we were getting on
C B
And I bet youre making shells back home for a steady boy to wear
G Am
Round his neck, well it wont hurt to think of you as if youre waiting for
C B
This letter to arrive because I'll be here quite a while
down, down, up, up, down, up
Verse 2:
Em A
I fought in a war and I left my friends behind me

Before I found out that the sickness there ahead of me
C B
Went beyond the bedsit infamy of the decade gone before
Chorus 2:
G Am
And I reminded myself of the words you said when we were getting on
C B
And I bet youre making shells back home for a steady man to wear
G Am
Round his neck, well it wont hurt to think of you as if youre waiting for
C B
This letter to arrive because I'll be here quite a while
Verse 3:
Em A
I fought in a war, and I didnt know where it would end
C B
It stretched before me infinitely, I couldn't really think
Em A
Of the day beyond now, keep your head down pal
C
Theres trouble plenty in this hour, this day
B
I can see hope I can see light
Chorus 3
G Am
And I reminded myself of the looks you gave when we were getting on
C B
And I bet youre making shells back home for a steady man to wear
G Am
Round his neck, well it wont hurt to think of you as if youre waiting for
C B
This letter to arrive because I'll be here quite a while
