(Continue C/G - Fmaj7)

Could be the middle of night or the middle of the street
It could be uptown, downtown or even where you sleep
I hear the marching drum I hear a song unsung
It could be your dream, my dream I'm not the only one

Cause im a soldier marching in an army I got no gun to shoot
all ive got is one guitar

I see the risin smoke I hear a heartbreak joke
All of my brothers and sisters I think it's time we spoke
I've only got six strings but like a bell they ring
It's like a jet plane, insane crashin' in my brain

Cause im a soldier marching in an army I got no gun to shoot
all ive got is one guitar

So if you get knocked down you gotta take a stand
For all the outcast, dead last who need a helping hand
You've got to raise your voice raise it up loud
You've got to raise your voice above the crowd

Cause im a soldier marching in an army I got no gun to shoot
all ive got is one guitar
