Johnny Cash - Like A Soldier

With the twi^Glight colors falling And the evening laying shadows

Hidden memories come stealing from my mi^Dnd As I feel my own heart beating out The simple joy of living

I wonder how I ever was that ki^Gnd But the wild road I was rambling Was always out there calling

And they said a hundred times I should have di^D7ed Then you reached down and touched me And lifted me up with you

So, I believe they were roads that I was meant to ri^Gde

|I'm like a sol^Cdier getting ^Dover the war ^G | |Like a you^Cng man getting ^D7over his ^Gcrazy days

|Like a ^Cbandit getting ^D7over his lawless ^Emways | |^CI don't have to ^D7do that any more ^G

|I'm like a sol^Cdier getting ^D7over the war^G There were nights I don't remember And there's pain that I've forgotten Other things I choose not to recall There are faces that come to me In my darkest secret memory Faces that I wish would not come back at all But in my dreams parade of lovers From the other times and places There's not one that matters now, no matter who I'm just thankful for the journey And that I've survived the battles And that my spoils of victory are you

|I'm like a sol^Cdier getting ^Dover the war ^G | |Like a you^Cng man getting ^D7over his ^Gcrazy days

|Like a ^Cbandit getting ^D7over his lawless ^Emways | |^CEvery day gets ^D7better than before ^G

|I'm like a sol^Cdier getting ^D7over the war^G
