Verse
G#
Two days past eighteen, he was waiting on the bus in his army green
C# G#
Sat down in a booth a cafe there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
G#
He's a little shy so she give him a smile
G# C# G#
So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while, and talking to me, I'm feeling pretty low
D#m7 C# G#
She said I'm off in an hour and I know a place we can go
[Verse 2]
G#
So they went down and they sat on the pier, he said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
C# G#
Cuz’ I got no one to send a letter to
D#m7 C# G#
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
[Chorus]
Fm
I cried
C# G#
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
D#
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Fm
Our love will never end
C# G#
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
D# G#
When the letter says, a soldier's coming home
[Verse 3]
G#
So the letters came from an army camp, in California then Vietnam
C# G#
And he told her of his heart, how it might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
G#
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here, I sittin’ thinking’ about that day on the pier
C# G#
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
D#m7 C# G#
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while
[Chorus]
Fm
I cried
C# G#
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
D#
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Fm
Our love will never end
C# G#
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
D# G#
When the letter says, a soldier's coming home
[Verse 4]
G#
One Friday night at a football game, the Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
C# G#
D# man said folks would you bow your head, for a list of local Vietnam dead
G#
Cryin’ all alone underneath the stands, was the piccolo player in the marching band
C# G#
And one name read and nobody really cared
D#m7 C# G#
Except that pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
[Chorus]
Fm
I cried
C# G#
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
D#
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Fm
Our love will never end
C# G#
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
D# G#
When the letter says, a soldier's coming homeee
When a letter says, a soldier’s coming home
Mmmmm
