	        E          (464444) 
I pull my boots off, 
                  Asus2          (242222)  
Throw my weapon on    the floor 
          E         (464444) 
I cry my eyes out 
                     Asus2      (242222) 
In my private little war 
         E 
Well it seems I've been a soldier  
         (464444) 
Heaven knows I've been no saint 
           Asus2 
With my camouflage and armor  
      (242222) 
Cold heart and grease paint 
    E 
To you this has no meaning 
     (464444) 
The armistice laid down  
     Asus2 
The armies all are quiet  
        (242222) 
And the guns don't make a sound, 'cause you.. 
 
Chorus 
E                             C#m7 
   You melted the steel walls, tore down the bobwire 
Bm7                   Asus2        (002100) 
   filled in the trenches, demanded a ceasefire 
E                         C#m7  
   And now you're leavin', there's nothin' I can do 
Bm7                   Asus2       (002100) 
   I want you to know, you're gonna take me with you 
 
2nd Verse 
Well now feel the match on suicide in the foxhole of my mind 
and way off in the distance, the air raid sirens whine 
and they sing your song of rescue, to my tattered worn out shell 
you drag me to your safety, from this my front line hill 
 
Chorus 
 
(bridge) 
C#m                 D                            E      
  The blood that was spilled in the heartache before 
C#m                 Asus2          B                             E 
  Left on massive scars, that I never, never could ignore to you 
 
Chorus(acoustic only)
