VERSE:
G+G C majorC
We were on patrol outside Hamdaniya
D MajorD G+G
When an IED blew the floor from right beneath us
E minorEm 
A minorAm A minorAm D MajorD D MajorD
My helmet was bloody, Jim was blown to pieces
G+G C majorC
When I woke up I was scared that I`d been captured
D MajorD G+G
And it happened that way every morning thereafter
E minorEm 
A augmentedA D MajorD D MajorD
Til my doctor thought to hang an American flag here
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G
My name is Sergeant Holcomb, sorry if I already told ya
C majorC A minorAm E minorEm
I can`t remember anything since the war
C majorC G+G
It`s called the hippocampus and when that part gets damaged
C majorC C majorC E minorEm D MajorD D MajorD
You can`t make memory any more
VERSE:
G+G C majorC
Well the nurse winks at me and says her name even though
D MajorD G+G
Apparently we met about an hour ago
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD D MajorD
And if the calendar`s right we met a couple hundred times or so
G+G C majorC
When I feel sorry for myself I think about ole Jim
D MajorD G+G
And I thank God I remember him
E minorEm
So if I ever see his momma
A minorAm D MajorD D MajorD
I say yes ma`am I remember him
