From: Arlo Guthrie
Capoed up on the 2nd fret. I left out the
suspensions etc... It's more or less like this:
G# Cm
Halfway around the world tonight
C# D# G#
In a strange and foreign land
Fm Cm
F soldier packs his memories
C# D#
As he leaves Afghanistan
Fm Cm
And back home they don't know too much
C# D#
There's just no way to tell
G# Cm
I guess you had to be there
C# D#
For to know that war was hell
Chorus:
C# Fm C#
And there won't be any victory parades
G# C#
For those that's coming back
Fm Cm
They'll fly them in at midnight
C# D#
And unload the body sacks
Fm Cm
And the living will be walking down
C# D#
F long and lonely road
G# Cm
Because nobody seems to care these days
C# D# G#
When a soldier makes it home
G# Cm
They'll say it wasn't easy
C# D# G#
Just another job well done
Fm Cm
As the government in Kabul falls
C# D#
To the sounds of rebel guns
Fm Cm
And the faces of the comrades
C# D#
Being blown out of the sky
G# Cm
Leaves you bitter with the feeling
C# D#
That they didn't have to die
C# Fm C#
And there won't be any victory parades
G# C#
For those that's coming back
Fm Cm
They'll fly them in at midnight
C# D#
And unload the body sacks
Fm Cm
And the living will be walking down
C# D#
F long and lonely road
G# Cm
Because nobody seems to care these days
C# D# G#
When a soldier makes it home
G# Cm
Halfway around the world tonight
C# D# G#
In a strange and foreign land
Fm Cm
F soldier unpacks memories
C# D#
That he saved from Vietnam
Fm Cm
Back home they didn't know too much
C# D#
There was just no way to tell
G# Cm
I guess you had to be there
C# D#
For to know that war was hell
C# Fm C#
And there wasn't any big parades
G# C#
For those that made it back
Fm Cm
They flew them in at midnight
C# D#
And unloaded all the sacks
Fm Cm
And the living were left walking down
C# D#
F long and lonely road
G# Cm
Because nobody seemed to care back then
C# D# G#
When a soldier made it home
G# Cm
The night is coming quickly
C# D# G#
And the stars are on their way
Fm Cm
As I stare into the evening
C# D#
Looking for the words to say
Fm Cm
That I saw the lonely soldier
C# D#
Just a boy that's far from home
G# Cm
And I saw that I was just like him
C# D#
While upon this earth I roam
C# Fm C#
And there may not be any big parades
G# C#
If I ever make it back
Fm Cm
As I come home under cover
C# D#
Through a world that can't keep track
Fm Cm
Of the heroes who have fallen
C# D#
Let alone the ones who won't
G# Cm
Which is why nobody seems to care
C# D# G#
