this song makes me cry...
Intro-
[C] [G] [C] [G]
Verse-
Its J[C]anuary 1970, do you re[G]member me
You p[F]ut me on a boat across the sea, in the [G]name of victory
But [C]much to my surprised when I arrived, there was no [G]welcoming committee
In[F]stead there was a man for me to kill, and now I s[G]ee all this too real
Refrain-
[C]Then I saw him standing w[G]ith a bayonet
[F]and as I ran towards him he [G]hardly broke a sweat
W[C]hen I took his life he fe[G]ll to his knees
A[F]nd as his eyes began to f[G]ade he whispered softly
Chorus-
[C]Godspeed this letter, a[G]way from here
I've [F]sealed it with my tears, and[G] stamped it with my fists
And [C]godspeed this letter, a[G]way from you
My w[F]ork down here is through
[G]I'm on my way to better days
And s[C]o are you[G] [F] [G]
Do Verse-
[C]I'm in his pocket that I saw the picture of his children and his [G]family
And [F]I began to realize this person I despised, in [G]actuality
Was n[C]ot much different from myself
w[C]e porbably could have taught each other [G]many things
And [F]now I know its much too late al[F]though I couldn't hesistate
I[G] checked his gun, and his chamber was empty
Do Refrain-
Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
and as I ran towards him he hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life he fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade he whispered softly
Chorus-
[C]Godspeed this letter, [G]away from here
I've [F]sealed it with my tears, and[G] stamped it with my fists
And [C]godspeed this letter, [G]away from you
[F]My work down here is through
[G]I'm on my way to better days
And so are you
Bridge-
[Bb]o-h[F]o
We know not what we've[C] done[G]
And [Bb]o-h[F]o
We know not what we've[C] done[G]
Chorus-
[C]Godspeed this letter, [G]away from here
I've [F]sealed it with my tears, and[G] stamped it with my fists
And [C]godspeed this letter, [G]away from you
[F]My work down here is through
[G]I'm on my way to better days
And [C]so are you
