Alright then. This is my first tab. Forced to do so because no one else has bothered to
it yet. This is an awesome song and i hope i came close. The verse and chorus follow the
patterns all the way through. Use the intro progession for the little break down part
the end. And for the slower parts just finger pick.

Intro: , x4
it's not hard to reach back to the day
underneath that iowa sun
running to the tower of waterloo
looking for the Sullivan's train to come
and his five boys would run to the top
and salute him as he went by
first we'd wave hello
then we'd wave goodbye, Daddy goodbye
it's not hard to reach back to the days
after the attack on pearl
overnight my buddies turned into men
running out of time for games and girls
and the Sullivan boys were not overlooked
Uncle Sam'll call them each by name
the very next day they left on a mystery train
say goodbye, Mrs. Sullivan
and don't you cry
"-We regret to inform you
the Navy has taken your sons away-"
all five... so put your blue stars in the window
