G/BTwo days past 18, he was waitin for a bus in his army greens Csat down in a booth, at a cafe there gave his oG/Brder to a girl with a bow in her hair
hes a little shy so she give him a smile
and he said would you mind sitting down for a while, and Ctalking Im feeling a little G/Blow she said im Doff in an hour and CI know where we can G/Bgo
G/Bso they went down and they sat on the peir he said I bet you got a boyfriend but I dont care Ive Cgot noone, to send a letter G/Bto would you mDind if I sent oCne back here to yG/Bou'
(chorus)
EmI cried, nCever gonna hold the hand of another guy, G/Btoo young for him they told her Dwaiting for the love of a travelling soldier Emour love will never end, wCaiting for that soldier to come back again G/Bnever gonna be alone when the leDtter said, soldiers comingG/B home,
so the letters came from an army camp, in california then veitnam and he told her of his heart, it might be love and all of the things he was so scared of he said when its getting kinda rough over here I think of that day sitting down at the pier and I close my eyes and see your pretty smile dont worry but I wont be able to write for a while (chorus) (half time) one friday night at a football game the lords prayer said and the anthem sang and the man said folks, would you bow your heads for a list of local veitnam vets crying all alone under the stands was a pickalo player in a marching band and one name read, nobody really cared except a pretty little girl, with a bow in her hair (chorus x2)
