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