Song for a soldier Sara Bareilles

Capo 2

C majorC  E minorEm  A minorAm  FF
Ooh...

FF       C majorC
Since you went away,
E minorEm                         A minorAm
You can color me, colour me, colour me, colour me in grey
  FF                C majorC
So I'm working on the words I want to say
E minorEm                    A minorAm
I never knew, never knew, never knew your name
    FF
(You're) just my soldier, babe

FF           C majorC
You lost track of the days
E minorEm                        A minorAm
They come and they go, and they come and they go there's no way
   FF
that I could keep up with it
    C majorC
And I pray
E minorEm                    A minorAm
And I wonder, wonder, wonder if you hear me
  FF
Ten thousand miles away

G+G             A minorAm   FF
Hey soldier  I'm missing your life
C majorC                  E minorEm
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright
        A minorAm
Sending you my love and a little light
FF              G+G        C majorC
 I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight

E minorEm                          A minorAm
You know it's gonna take, gonna take, gonna take more time
      FF           C majorC
Till we're staring up at the same sky
    E minorEm                         A minorAm
And so I'm going to wait, going to wait, going to wait in line
   FF
Till my soldier's mine


G+G             A minorAm   FF
Hey soldier  I'm missing your life
C majorC                  E minorEm
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright
        A minorAm
Sending you my love and a little light
FF              G+G        A minorAm
I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight
      E minorEm
I don't care how long it takes
A minorAm      G+G   C majorC
I'm not going anywhere, love (no)
     E minorEm        A minorAm
You see there this distance only makes me
FF
Say it over and over till it gets to you
     C majorC  G+G  A minorAm FF
My soldier (ooh ooh ooh ...)

G+G             A minorAm   FF
Hey soldier  I'm missing your life
C majorC                  E minorEm
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright
        A minorAm
Sending you my love and a little light
FF                c        E minorEm
I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight
        A minorAm
Sending you my love and a little light
     FF         A minorAm    FF
I never told ya that you're my soldier

C majorC
