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