Wow, this is my first Tab thing, even though this one is chords...yeah anyways... I really like this song, and it's so sad too! So of course, I spent time figuring this song out on the guitar, and I hope you spend time and have fun learning it as well! Good luck! Capo on 2nd Fret Verse 1 Two days past 18 he was waiting for a bus in his army greens Sat down at a booth in a cafe there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair He's a little shy so she gives him a smile and he said would you mind Sitten down for a while and talking to me, I'm feeling a little low She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go Verse 2 ( same chords as Verse 1) So they went down and they sat on the pier he said "I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care I've got no one to send a letter to. Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?" Chorus: I cried Never gonna hold the hand of another guy Too young, for him they told her Waitin for the love of a travelin soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone When the letters said, a soldiers coming home Verse 3: So the letters came from an army camp, in California then Vietnam And he told her of his heart, might be lovin all of thigns he was so scared of He said when things were getting kinda rough over here, I think of that day Sittin down at the pier and I close my eyes and see your pretty smile Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while Chorus x1 One Friday night at a football game, the Lord's prayer said and the anthem sang a man said folks would you bow your head for a list of local Vietnam dead Cryin all alone under the stands was a piccolo player in the marching band And one name read and nobody really cared But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair Chorus x2
