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