[Verse 1]
[Am]Our little army [Dm]boy
Is [Em]coming home from [G]B.F.P.O.
[Am]I've a bunch of purp[Dm]le flowers

To [Em]carry home my [G]little soldier

[Chorus 1]
[Am](What could he do?)
[D](Should have been a rock [C]star)
But he didn't [Em]have the money for a [Am]guitar
[D](Should have been a poli[C]tician)
But he never [Em]had a proper educ[Am]ation
[D](Should have been a fa[C]ther)
But he never [Em]even made it to his [Am]twenties
[C]What a waste

[Am]Tears o'er a tin [Dm]box
Oh, [Em]Jesus Christ, he [G]wasn't to know
[Am]Like a chicken with [Dm]a fox
He [Em]couldn't win the [G]war with ego
[Am]Give the kid the pick [Dm]of pips
And [Em]give him all your [G]stripes and ribbons
[Am]Now he's sitting in hi[Dm]s hole
He [Em]might as well have [G]buttons and bows

[Chorus 2]
[Am](What could he do?)
[D](Should have been a rock [C]star)
But he didn't [Em]have the money for a [Am]guitar

[D](Should have been a fa[C]ther)
But he never [Em]even made it to his [Am]twenties
