I got your letter, To-day, And I miss you, Oh, So much here
Am C C G G7
I can't wait, To see you all, And I'm counting, The days dear
F C C F
I still believe that there's gold, At the end of the world
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4 C Csus4
And I'll come home, To Illinois, On the day after tomorrow
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G G7
It is so hard, And it's cold here, And I'm tired of taking orders
Am C C G G7
And I miss old Rockford town, Up by the Wisconsin border
F C C F
What I miss you won't believe, Shovelling snow and raking leaves
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4 C Csus4
And my plane, Will touch down, On the day after tomorrow
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G G7
I close my eyes, Every night, And I dream, That I can hold you
Am C C G G7
They fill us full of lies, Everyone buys, 'Bout what it means to be a soldier
F C C F
I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel, 'Bout all the blood that's been spilled
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4 C Csus4
Will God on his throne, Get me back home, On the day after tomorrow
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G G7
You can't deny, The other side, Don't want to die anymore than we do
Am C C G G7
What I'm tryin' to say, Is don't they pray, To the same God that we do
F C C F
Tell me how does God choose, Whose prayers does he refuse
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4 C Csus4
Who turns the wheel, Who throws the dice, On the day after tomorrow
INST: F F C
Mmm mmmmm mmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm
F F C G
Mmm mmmmm mmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm mmmmm
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G G7
I'm not fighting, For justice, I am not fighting for freedom
Am C C G G7
I am fighting, For my life, And another day in the world here
F C C F
I just do what I've been told, We're just the gravel in the road
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4 C Csus4
And only the lucky ones, Come home, On the day after tomorrow
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G G7
And the Summer, It too will fade, And with it brings the Winters frost dear
Am C C G G7
And I know, We too are made, Of all the things that we have lost here
F C C F
I'll be twenty-one today, I been saving all my pay
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4
And my plane, Will touch down, On the day after tomorrow
C Csus4 C Csus4 C G C Csus4 C Csus4 C
And my plane, Will touch down, On the day after tomorrow Last updated:
