Verse 1:
C majorC
Its January 1970
G+G
do you remember me
FF
You put me on a boat across
G+G
the sea in the name of victory
C majorC
But much to my surprised when I
G+G
arrived there was no welcoming committee
FF
Instead there was a man for me to
G+G
kill and now I see all this too real
Refrain:
C majorC
Then I saw him standing
G+G
with a bayonet
FF
and as I ran towards
G+G
him he hardly broke a sweat
C majorC
When I took his life
G+G
he fell to his knees
FF
And as his eyes began to
G+G
fade he whispered softly
Chorus 1:
C majorC
Godspeed this letter
G+G
away from here
FF
I've sealed it with my tears
G+G
and stomped it with my
C majorC
fists And godspeed this
G+G
letter away from you
FF
My work down here is through
G+G
I'm on my way to better
C majorC G+G FF G+G
days and so are you
Verse 2:
C majorC
I'm in his pocket that I saw the
picture of his children and his
G+G FF
family And I began to realize this
G+G
person I despised, in actuality
C majorC
Was not much different from
myself we probably could have
G+G
taught each other many things
FF
And now I know its much too
ate although I couldn't hesitate
GI checked his gun and
his chamber was empty
(Repeat Refrain)
