Soldier Acoustic chords by The Goo Goo Dolls

Capo 3 (all chords relative to capo position)



Intro: Em C A2 x2


Verse:

   Em        C        A2
When you came back I knew you'd have a story
   Em   C        A2
You need someone to ease the pain of living life
Em       C       A2
You're like a soldier in the fray seeking shelter
Em       C      A2
From all the madness that you've seen, raining down now

Chorus:

C  D      G
I know things change, your world has slipped away
C  D      G
I know things change, you're living like a
C    D       G
Soldier caught in the fray
    Bm    C
Don't lose your faith
       D          Em
It's not so cold, it's not too late


Em C A2 x2


Verse:

   Em            C     A2
When you were naive you were so invincible
          Em            C        A2
And you laughed at anyone and anything that ever got in your way
Em      C         A2
But now the mirror shows the change, and you don't see that
Em       C       A2
You're sinking back into the crowd, an echo faded


Chorus


Bridge:

F#m            D
And I never thought I'd see
           Bm
You living on your knees
          Abdim
A slave to some disease

That holds you captive
F#m             D
And you can look inside of me
             Bm
But the answers that you seek
          Abdim
And everything you need

Is all inside you



Interlude: Em D A2 x4



Chorus
