American Legion(Chords)

	        verse 1 
A          D               A            D 
 In the streetlight, your hair is the blackest sky 
A             D             F#m       D 
 Through the snow, the cars silently pass us by. 
A          Bm               F#m        D 
 When you smile, there's no reason to say goodbye 
E           A 
Don't say goodbye

verse 2 
A          D               A            D 
 I still have the last letter you left for me 
A          D             F#m            D 
 All your t-shirts, your red and green pedigree 
A         Bm            F#m        D 
 All the rest is sealed up behind memory 
E       A 
Fading away.

 On the steps of the American Legion Hall, 
A          D             F#m    D 
 You wait there alone, nobody left to call. 
A          Bm           F#m            D 
 No one's there again Spring, summer, winter, fall, 
E          A 
Terrible day

 If I'd been there, I'd surely have stayed with you. 
A         D              F#m          D 
If I'd been there, I'd surely have prayed for you 
A         Bm             F#m          D 
If I'd been there, I'd surely have prayed for you

I want you to know
