G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1)
Cigarettes and a bottle of beer, this poem that I wrote for you
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1)This black stone and these hard tears they're all I've got left now of you
Bm (x24432@1) DI (xx0232@1)remember you in your Marine uniform laughing, laughing at your ship out party
Bm (x24432@1) DI've (xx0232@1)read Robert McNamara, he says he's sorry
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) DYeah, (xx0232@1)you and your boots and black t-shirt, oh, Billy you looked so bad
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1)
Yeah you and your rock and roll band was the best thing this shit town ever had
Bm (x24432@1) DNow (xx0232@1)the men that put you here eat with their families in rich dining halls
Bm (x24432@1) DAnd (xx0232@1)apology and forgiveness got no place here at all, here at the wall
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) DI'm (xx0232@1)sorry that I missed you last year, I couldn't find no one to drive me
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1)
If your eyes could cut through that black stone, tell me would they recognize me
Bm (x24432@1) DFor (xx0232@1)the living time it must be served, life goes on
Bm (x24432@1) DCigarettes (xx0232@1)and a bottle of beer and skin on black stone
| G| (320003@1)G| (320003@1)G| (320003@1)D| (xx0232@1)G| (320003@1)G| (320003@1)G| (320003@1)D| (xx0232@1)D| (xx0232@1)
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1)
High school pictures and paper flowers, there's ribbons as red as the blood
G (320003@1) D (xx0232@1) G (320003@1) DYeah (xx0232@1)as the blood you spilled in the Central Highlands mud
Bm (x24432@1) DNow (xx0232@1)the limousines rush down Pennsylvania Avenue as the rain falls
Bm (x24432@1) DApology (xx0232@1)and forgiveness got no place here at all
