Verse
A#
Two days past eighteen, he was waiting on the bus in his army green
D# A#
Sat down in a booth a cafe there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
A#
He's a little shy so she give him a smile
A# D# A#
So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while, and talking to me, I'm feeling pretty low
Fm7 D# A#
She said I'm off in an hour and I know a place we can go
[Verse 2]
A#
So they went down and they sat on the pier, he said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
D# A#
Cuz’ I got no one to send a letter to
Fm7 D# A#
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
[Chorus]
Gm
I cried
D# A#
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
F
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Gm
Our love will never end
D# A#
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
F A#
When the letter says, a soldier's coming home
[Verse 3]
A#
So the letters came from an army camp, in California then Vietnam
D# A#
And he told her of his heart, how it might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
A#
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here, I sittin’ thinking’ about that day on the pier
D# A#
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Fm7 D# A#
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while
[Chorus]
Gm
I cried
D# A#
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
F
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Gm
Our love will never end
D# A#
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
F A#
When the letter says, a soldier's coming home
[Verse 4]
A#
One Friday night at a football game, the Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
D# A#
F man said folks would you bow your head, for a list of local Vietnam dead
A#
Cryin’ all alone underneath the stands, was the piccolo player in the marching band
D# A#
And one name read and nobody really cared
Fm7 D# A#
Except that pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
[Chorus]
Gm
I cried
D# A#
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
F
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Gm
Our love will never end
D# A#
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
F A#
When the letter says, a soldier's coming homeee
When a letter says, a soldier’s coming home
Mmmmm
