[G][A][G]
[A]Farewell, my wistful

[Verse 1]
[G]
Saigon bride
[A]I'm going out to ste[G]m the tide
[F#m]A tide that never [Em]saw the seas
[F#m]It flows through jungles,
[Em]'round the trees
[F#m]Some say it's yellow, s[Em]ome say red
[F#m]It will not matter when[Em]
we're [D]dead[F#m]

[Verse 2]
How [A]many dead men [G]will it take
[A]To build a dike that wil[G]l not break?
How [F#m]many children m[Em]ust we kill
[F#m]Before we make the waves [Em]stand
[D]still?[F#m][A][G][A]
[G]
Though [A]miracles come [G]high today
[A]We have the wherewit[G]hal to pay

[Verse 3]
It [F#m]takes them off [Em]the streets, you know
To [F#m]places they would [Em]never go [F#m]alone
It gives them [Em]useful trades
[F#m]The lucky boys are even p[Em]aid[D][F#m]
Men [A]die to build their [G]Pharaoh's tombs
[A]And still, and still the tee[G]ming wombs

[Verse 4]
How [F#m]many men to c[Em]onquer Mars?
[F#m]How many dead to reach [Em]the
[D]stars?[A][G][A]
[G]
[A]Farewell, my wistful [G]Saigon bride
[A]I'm going out to ste[G]m
the tide
A tide that never saw the seas
It flows through jungles, 'round the [F#m]trees
Some say it's yellow, [Em]some say red
[F#m]It will not matter when w[Em]e're dead[D]
