Song For A Soldier

	  		

 
 

C   Em   Am   F 
Ooh... 

F              C 
Since you went away,  
Em                                                 Am 
You can color me, colour me, colour me, colour me in grey 
   F                               C 
So I'm working on the words I want to say 
Em                                        Am 
I never knew, never knew, never knew your name 
        F 
(You're) just my soldier, babe 

F                     C 
You lost track of the days 
Em                                               Am 
They come and they go, and they come and they go there's no way 
     F 
that I could keep up with it 
       C 
And I pray 
Em                                       Am 
And I wonder, wonder, wonder if you hear me 
    F 
Ten thousand miles away 

G                         Am      F 
Hey soldier   I'm missing your life 
C                                   Em 
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright 
               Am 
Sending you my love and a little light 
F                            G               C 
 I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight 

Em                                                    Am 
You know it's gonna take, gonna take, gonna take more time 
           F                      C 
Till we're staring up at the same sky 
       Em                                                 Am 
And so I'm going to wait, going to wait, going to wait in line 
     F 
Till my soldier's mine 


G                         Am      F 
Hey soldier   I'm missing your life 
C                                   Em 
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright 
               Am 
Sending you my love and a little light 
F                            G                Am 
I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight 
            Em 
I don't care how long it takes 
Am            G     C 
I'm not going anywhere, love (no) 
          Em                Am 
You see there this distance only makes me  
F 
Say it over and over till it gets to you 
         C   G   Am  F   
My soldier (ooh  ooh ooh ...) 

G                         Am      F 
Hey soldier   I'm missing your life 
C                                   Em 
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright 
               Am 
Sending you my love and a little light 
F                               c               Em 
I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight 
               Am 
Sending you my love and a little light 
         F                 Am       F 
I never told ya that you're my soldier 

C 
Goodnight (Goodnight) Goodnight (Goodnight) 
Em                              Am 
Goodnight, Goodnight, Goodnight, Goodnight 
F 
 Mmm...
