Travelling Soldier** - The Chicks Capo:2 G Two days past 18, he was waiting for the bus in his army greens C G Sat down at a booth in a cafe there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair G He's a little shy so she give him a smile and he said would you mind C G Sittin' down for a while and talking to me, I'm feeling a little low F C G She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go G So they went down and they sat on the pier, he said "I bet you got a boyfriend but C G F C I don't care, I got no one to send a letter to. Would you mind if I sent one back G here to you?" [Chorus] Em I cried C G Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young, for him they told her D Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C G Waitin' for the soldier to come back ag--ain, Never more to be alone D G When the letter says, a soldier's coming home G So the letters came from an army camp, in California then Vietnam C G And he told her of his heart, it might be love and all of things he was so scared of G He said when it's gettin' kinda rough over here, I think of that day C G Sittin' down at the pier and I close my eyes and see your pretty smile F C G Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while [Chorus] Em I cried C G Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young, for him they told her D Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C G Waitin' for the soldier to come back ag--ain, Never more to be alone D G When the letter says, a soldier's coming home [Solo] G G C G G G C G F C G G [Verse] G One Friday night at a football game, the Lord's Prayer said and the anthem C G sang, a man said folks would you bow your heads for a list of local Vietnam dead G Cryin' all alone under the stands was a piccolo player in the marching band C G And one name read and nobody really cared F C G But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair [Chorus] x 2 Em I cried C G Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young, for him they told her D Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C G Waitin' for the soldier to come back ag--ain, Never more to be alone D G When the letter says, a soldier's coming home [Outro] -(repeat and fade out) G C G C
