Good Luck Charm chords by Border Patrol
Guitar chords with lyrics
Intro:
F#m E A Dm A F#m Dm A
Verse 1:
A E
When the papers came to Camden
F#m
All the boys took up the call
D E
Gathered good luck in their rucksacks
F#m A
Took to leaving with the fall
F#m E
And they took with them their tokens
A Dm
And they took with them their guns
A F#m
Gripping charms of their young lovers
Dm A
But there were no lucky ones
Verse 2:
A E
She sat waiting on her wicker
F#m
Watching every day till dusk
D E
Until again the air grew thicker
F#m A
And she had withered to a husk
F#m E
And she started to feel broken
A Dm
And she finally felt alone
A F#m
Because the house whose porch she watched from
Dm A
Had long ceased to be her home
Chorus:
D
Now she lives in someone's locket
F#m
Sheltered in a brass-clad room
D E
Another picture in a pocket
F#m A
With a puff of sweet perfume
D E
She sent her heart across the ocean
F#m Dm
For to keep him safe from harm
A F#m
Cut her face out of a picture
Dm A
Said "I'll be your good luck charm"
Verse 3:
A E
Then the calls came from the general
F#m
Must've been most every day
D E
Another boy whose travels ended
F#m A
On a shore a world away
F#m E
But when she offered god devotion
A Dm
The army offered her a flag
A F#m
And the deepest of condolence
Dm A
From the boys down at Fort Bragg
Chorus:
D
Now she lives in someone's locket
F#m
Sheltered in a brass-clad room
D E
Another picture in a pocket
F#m A
With a puff of sweet perfume
D E
She sent her heart across the ocean
F#m Dm
For to keep him safe from harm
A F#m
Cut her face out of a picture
Dm A
Said "I'll be your good luck charm"
solo:
A E F#m D E F#m A F#m E A Dm A F#m Dm A
Verse 4:
A E
And if you wander through the graveyard
F#m
On your way through Camden town
D E
There are many headstone markers
F#m A
Where they've laid a body down
F#m E
Though her grave it bears no etching
A Dm
Know her spirit is at rest
A F#m
For it's finally made it's way back
Dm A
To the home that she loved best
Chorus:
D
Now she lives in someone's locket
F#m
Sheltered in a brass-clad room
D E
Another picture in a pocket
F#m A
With a puff of sweet perfume
D E
She sent her heart across the ocean
F#m Dm
For to keep him safe from harm
A F#m
Cut her face out of a picture
Dm A
