xIntro:
E MajorE C# minorC#m A augmentedA BB (2x)

 E MajorE           C# minorC#m           A augmentedA      BB
I'm sure you must have thought sometimes while lying in the sticks,
 E MajorE          C# minorC#m      A augmentedA         BB
"What the hell am I doing here? I don't do this for kicks."
     E MajorE                    A augmentedA         BB
There's a peaceful town to the South of us, and a beach of sand and sun.
   C# minorC#m        G# minorG#m      BB        E MajorE
It's you that fought to keep it, and troopie boy, you won.

Verse:
BB            E MajorE       BB        E MajorE
No matter what you're thinking and I know the cost is high.
BB            E MajorE         A augmentedA          BB
To go through all that hell on Earth, and see your best friend die.
  G# minorG#m        C# minorC#m         A augmentedA          E MajorE
To feel the world's against you, and the headlines say you're done.
  A augmentedA                  BB        E MajorE
You slapped the devil in the face, and troopie boy, you won.

Chorus:
 E MajorE           C# minorC#m      A augmentedA       BB
Although there are no flowers, and a victory parade.
 E MajorE          C# minorC#m    A augmentedA     BB
Prancing through the cities in fancy motorcade.
  E MajorE                A augmentedA         BB
In God's eyes you're a hero, and I know the time will come.
     C# minorC#m         G# minorG#m     BB        E MajorE
When the good things will get back to you, troopie boy, you won.

Verse:
BB            E MajorE       BB        E MajorE
No matter what you're thinking and I know the cost is high.
BB            E MajorE         A augmentedA          BB
To go through all that hell on Earth, and see your best friend die.
  G# minorG#m        C# minorC#m         A augmentedA          E MajorE
To feel the world's against you, and the headlines say you're done.
  A augmentedA                  BB        E MajorE
You slapped the devil in the face, and troopie boy, you won.

Chorus:
E MajorE             C# minorC#m         A augmentedA     BB
In the world there is no justice, it's all a righteous face.
   E MajorE      C# minorC#m       A augmentedA         BB
But behind it is corruption that infests the human race.
E MajorE                A augmentedA        BB
You just keep your courage, and teach it to your son.
C# minorC#m        G# minorG#m         BB        E MajorE
Fight for what you know is right, and troopie boy, you won.

No matter what you're thinking and I know the cost is high.
