Of an old farmhouse outside Birmingham 

When some on-the-scene reporter 
A                                      B7 
Stuck a camera in the face of that old man

In a no-win situation in a place called Vietnam'

So if you're waitin' here for me to cry 
A                                   B7 
I hate to disappoint you boy, but I won't'
