[Verse 2]
She had two [D]babies
One was six months one was [G]three
In the war [D]of '44
Every telephone ring
Every heartbeat stinging
When she [Bm]thought it [A]was God calling [G]her
Oh, [Bm]would her son [A]grow
to know his [G]father

[Verse 3]
[D]I don't want t[A]o wait
For [Bm]our lives to [Asus4]be over
[G]I want to know right [D]now
What will it [Esus4]be[Asus4]
[D]I don't want t[A]o wait
For [Bm]our lives to [Asus4]be over
Will it [G]be yes or will [D]it [Esus4]be sorry
[D]?

He showed up all wet
On the rainy front [G]step
Wearing shrapnel in his [D]skin
And the war he saw
Lives inside him still

The years [Bm]passed by and now
[A]He [D]has a granddau[G]ghter

For [Bm]our lives [Asus4]to be over
Will [G]it be yes [D]or will [Esus4]it be

[Verse 6]
[D]Oh, so you look at me
From across the room
You're [C]wearing [Em]your anguish [C]again
Believe me I know the feeling
It suck[Csus4]s you into the jaws
[C]of [G]an [Gsus4]ger
[G]Oh,[D] so breathe a little
more deeply my love
All we [C]have is this very moment
And I don't want to do what
His father and his father
and [Csus4]his father did
I [C]want to be here now
