Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[B]I f[Em]ought in a war,
and I left [Am]my friends behind me
To go looking for [C]the enemy,
and [B]it wasn't very long
Be[Em]fore [E]I w[Em]ould stand
with another [Am]boy in front of me
And a corpse that just fell in[C]to me
With the [B]bullets flying round
And I re[G]minded myself
of the words you said
[A]When we were getting on
An[Am]d I bet you're making
[C]shells back home
For a [B]steady boy to wear
[G]Around his neck,
well it won't hurt to think of you
[Am]As if you're waiting for
this letter [C]to arrive
Because I'll [B]be here quite a while
[G][Em][Am][C][B]
[Em][Am][C][B]
[E]I fought a[Em] new war,
and I [A]left my friends behind me
Never [Am]looking [C]for the enemy
And it [B]wasn't very [E]long
Before [Em]I found out
That the [A]sickness there ahead of me
Went bey[Am]ond [C]the bedsit infamy
Of the [B]decades gone be[D]fore
And I re[G]mind myself
of the words you said
[A]when we were getting on
And I [Am]bet [C]you're making shells back home
for a [B]steady man to [D]wear
Around his [G]neck,
well it won't hurt to think of [Am]you
As if you're waiting for this
letter [C]to arrive
Because I'll [B]be here quite a [Em]while[Am][C][B][D]

[G][Am][C][B]
[Em]I fought a war[E],
[Em]and I didn[A]'t know where it would end
It [Am]stretched [C]before me infinitely,
I [B]couldn't really think
[E]Of the [Em]day beyond now,
keep your [A]head down pal,
there's trouble plenty
[Am]In t[C]his hour, this day,
I can't see [B]hope, I can't see [D]light
And I re[G]minded myself
of the looks you gave
[A]when we were getting on
And I [Am]bet [C]you're making shells back home
for her [B]sturdy man to wear
Around his [G]neck,
well, it won't hurt to think of you
[Am]As if you're waiting for
his letter [C]to arrive
Because I'll [B]be here quite a [Em]while[A][Am][C]

I'm going to [B]do
