[Verse 1]
Well he was [Am]Thailand based
She was an airforce wife
He used to [C]fly weekends
It was the easy life
But then it [G]turned around
And he began to change
She didn't [Dm]wonder then
She didn't [G]think it strange
But then he [Am]got a call
He had to leave that night
He couldn't [C]say too much
But it would be alright
He didn't [G]need to pack
They'd meet the next night
He had a [Dm]job to do
[G]Flying to Cambodia

[Interlude 1]
[Am]Whooo..[Am][C][Dm][E]
[Am]Whooo..[Am][C][Dm][E]
[Am][Am]

[Verse 2]
And as the [Am]nights passed by
She tried to trace the past
The way he [C]used to look
The way he used to laugh
I guess she'll [G]never know
What got inside his soul
She couldn't [Dm]make it out
Just couldn't [G]take it all
He had the [Am]saddest eyes
The girl had ever seen
He used to [C]cry some nights
As though he lived a dream
And as she [G]held him close
He used to search her face
As though she [Dm]knew the truth
[G]Lost inside Cambodia

[Interlude 2]
[Am]Whooo..[Am][C][Dm][E]
[Am]Whooo..[Am][C][Dm][E]
[Am][Am]

[Verse 3]
But then a [Am]call came through
They said he'd soon be home
She had to [C]pack a case
And they would make a rendez[F]vous[Dm]
But now a [Am]year has passed
And not a single word
And all the [C]love she knew
Has disappeared out in the [F]haze[Dm]
[Am]

[Interlude 3]
[G][Am][G]
[F][F][F][F]

[Interlude 4]
[Am][Am][C][C][F][Dm]

[Outro 1]
And now the [Am]years have passed
With not a single word
But there is [C]only one thing left
I know for [F]sure
[Dm]She won't see his face a[Am]gain
