Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

Told you I was joining the army, had no excuse

seemed the right the to do

and you called me a fool

said I’d come back mean and cruel

Aaid I just wanted to make my grandfather proud

even though he’s not around

been gone since I was thirteen

I’m still worried what he’d think about me

playing this guitar ain’t gonna cut for long

me singing these songs

don’t compare to what he did over there

need to prove I can carry my share

take on my own load to bear

to me, it only seems fair
