When Do I Get To Come Home? chords and lyrics - WILL HOGE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]I signed up nine years ago,
what else could I do?
A punk kid from the greatest land
with everything through
I didn't want nobody to crush
these dreams of yours and mine
I got a haircut and a uniform,
just sign they're on the dotted line
Signed the dotted line
Shipped me off for the first time
Mama said, son, come home soon
Shipped me off the next time
My wife said, the baby will be due in June
I came back for a third time
With my second kid on the way
Now I'm still here in this goddamn sand
And that boy turns one today
[G]How much cheaper
does the [A]gasoline have to [Em]be?
[G]How many more people
[A]do I [Am]have to [A]see set [Em]free?
[G]I'll do whatever it [A]takes,
you [Em]see
[G]Somebody please, please tell [B]me
When do I get to come [Em]home?
Oh, the white guy sent me over,
the black guy said he'd
bring me home
Puppets talking on TV,
arguing about the right and wrong
I'm sure it's fun to talk about
when your workday ends at five
But me and my boys'
workday don't end
unless we make it back home alive
[G]How much cheaper
does the [A]gasoline have to [Em]be?
[G]How many more people
[A]do I [Am]have to [A]see set [Em]free?
[G]I'll do whatever it [A]takes, [Am]you s[A]ee[Em]
But somebody please,
[G]won't you please tell me[B]
Where do I get to come [Em]home?
Where do I get to come home?
Granddaddy fought in World War II
Until the Germans all gave in
Daddy went to Vietnam
Gave on to Ho Chi Minh
I got aches and pains in every bone I got
and I just take it on the chin
Cause I'm back here for
a fourth time
Wondering what it's gonna take to win
[D]Oh, [G]how much cheaper
does the [A]gasoline have to [Em]be?
[G]How many more people
[A]do I [Am]have to [A]see set [Em]free?
[A]I'l[G]l do whatever it tak[A]es,
you [Em]see
Some[G]body please,
won't you please tell [B]me
Where do I get to come [Em]home?
Where do I get to come home?
You
