Travellin' Soldier - The Chicks chords

Key: D Singer/Band: The Chicks


Tone [D]
[A]Two days past eighteen he was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat [D]down in a booth in a cafe there gave his [A]order to a girl with a bow
in her hair
[A]He's a little shy so she give him a smile so he said would you mind sittin'
down for a while
And [D]talking to me, I'm feeling a little [A]low
She said I'm [G]off in an hour and I [D]know where we can [A]go
So they [A]went down and they sat on the pier he said I bet you got a
boyfriend but I don't care
I [D]got no one to send a letter [A]to
Would you [G]mind if I sent [D]one back here to [A]you
[F#m]I cried [D]Never gonna hold the hand of another [A]guy
Too young for him they told her [E]Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
[F#m]Our love will never end [D]Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the [E]letter says A soldier's coming [A]home
So the [A]letters came from an army camp In California then Vietnam
And he told [D]her of his heart It might be love and [A]all of the things he
was so scared of
He [A]said when it's getting kinda rough over here I think of that day sittin'
down at the pier
And I [D]close my eyes and see your pretty [A]smile
Don't [G]worry but I won't be [D]able to write for a [A]while
[F#m]I cried [D]Never gonna hold the hand of another [A]guy
Too young for him they told her [E]Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
[F#m]Our love will never end [D]Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the [E]letter says A soldier's coming [A]home
One [A]Friday night at a football game the Lord's Prayer said and the anthem
sang
A [D]man said folks would you bow your head for the [A]list of local Vietnam
dead
[A]Crying all alone under the stands was the piccolo player in the marching
band
And [D]one name read and nobody really [A]cared
But a [G]pretty little [D]girl with a bow in [A]her hair
[F#m]I cried [D]Never gonna hold the hand of another [A]guy
Too young for him they told her [E]Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
[F#m]Our love will never end [D]Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the [E]letter says A soldier's coming [A]home
[F#m]I cried [D]Never gonna hold the hand of another [A]guy
Too young for him they told her [E]Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
[F#m]Our love will never end [D]Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the [E]letter says A soldier's coming [A]home
