Intro:
Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramD MajorD  Chord diagramG+G  Chord diagramC majorC  Chord diagramA augmentedA

   Chord diagramG+G                                 Chord diagramD MajorD
He got home from the service, as the spring began its turn
Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramB minorBm
Twelve long months away
   Chord diagramG+G                              Chord diagramD MajorD
He folded up his uniform with the medals tucked inside
        Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramA augmentedA
Started living for today
        Chord diagramG+G                               Chord diagramD MajorD
But the present could not find him, nor could his wife and kids
       Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramE minorEm     Chord diagramB minorBm
He was there but he was gone
Chord diagramG+G                           Chord diagramD MajorD
Soon his only comfort was a bottle and his gun
          Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramA augmentedA
Something right that went so wrong


Chorus:
        Chord diagramB minorBm               Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramD MajorD
And the silence keeps on coming as the movie plays again
        Chord diagramB minorBm                Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramD MajorD              Chord diagramA augmentedA
You can smell that yellow dust and death hanging on the wind
       Chord diagramB minorBm                  Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD            Chord diagramA augmentedA
And we thought the war was over but the headlines do reveal
     Chord diagramD MajorD                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA              Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramD MajorD
That another soldier died today on the hometown battlefield


Break:

Verse:
   Chord diagramG+G                                    Chord diagramD MajorD
He sits outside the courthouse with his pant legs tucked away
    Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramE minorEm        Chord diagramB minorBm
And no one knows his name
Chord diagramG+G                                        Chord diagramD MajorD
One wrong step there in the sand put him where he is today
Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramA augmentedA
One more just the same

Chord diagramG+G                                  Chord diagramD MajorD
All his memories live there in the space below his knees
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramE minorEm     Chord diagramB minorBm
Back when he was whole
         Chord diagramG+G                 Chord diagramD MajorD
But that IED didn't just relieve him of his legs
   Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramA augmentedA
It blew apart his soul
Chorus:
        Chord diagramB minorBm               Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramD MajorD
And the silence keeps on coming as the movie plays again
        Chord diagramB minorBm                Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramD MajorD              Chord diagramA augmentedA
You can smell that yellow dust and death flying) on the wind
       Chord diagramB minorBm                  Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD            Chord diagramA augmentedA
And we thought the war was over but the headlines do reveal
     Chord diagramD MajorD                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA              Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramD MajorD     Chord diagramD MajorD
That another soldier died today on the hometown battlefield


Verse:
Chord diagramA augmentedA                                    Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramD MajorD
If you're wearing loafers, you ain't walked the burning sand
    Chord diagramA augmentedA                            Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramD MajorD
And you ain't never had to shoot another livin' man
         Chord diagramE minorEm           Chord diagramD MajorD             Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD
It don't matter if we won, it don't matter if we lost
          Chord diagramE minorEm              Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramA augmentedA      Chord diagramA augmentedA
They were following their orders, no matter the cost


     Chord diagramG+G                                  Chord diagramD MajorD
So I remember what they've given when I see my flag unfurled
Chord diagramG+G     Chord diagramE minorEm         Chord diagramB minorBm
Free against the sky
        Chord diagramG+G                                  Chord diagramD MajorD
And the way we seem to lose them when they get back to the world
    Chord diagramG+G               Chord diagramA augmentedA
Can someone tell me why


Chorus:
        Chord diagramB minorBm               Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramD MajorD
And the silence keeps on coming as the movie plays again
        Chord diagramB minorBm                Chord diagramG+G              Chord diagramD MajorD              Chord diagramA augmentedA
You can smell that yellow dust and death hanging on the wind
       Chord diagramB minorBm                  Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD            Chord diagramA augmentedA
And we thought the war was over but the headlines do reveal
     Chord diagramD MajorD                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA              Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramD MajorD
That another soldier died today on the hometown battlefield
       Chord diagramB minorBm              Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD            Chord diagramA augmentedA
Yes we pray the war is over but the headlines do reveal
     Chord diagramD MajorD                                 Chord diagramA augmentedA              Chord diagramD MajorD          Chord diagramD MajorD
That another soldier died today on the hometown battlefield
