Gavin Degraw – Soldier
Capo 4 fret

INTRO
C#m   B     E    A   E    B
La la la la la la, la la la la la
C#m   B     E    A   B
La ra la ra ra ra, la ra la ra ra

VERSE 1
E                   B
Where did all the people go?
C#m                        A
They got scared when the lights went low.
E                     B
I get you through it nice and slow,
          C#m                       A
When the world's spinning out of control.

E                    B
Afraid of what they might lose
C#m                        A
Might get scraped or they might get bruised.
E                   B
You could beg and what's the use
       C#m                            A
That's why it's called the moment of truth

CHORUS
E                     
I'd get it if you need it,
B                          
I'll search if you don't see it,
C#m
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
A                   B 
You get hurt, I'll take your pain.

E
I know you don't believe it,
B                
But I said it and I still mean it,
C#m
When you heard what I told you,
A                       B
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.

VERSE 2
E            B
Funny when times get hard,
C#m                                A
At the last moment when you're supposed to charge,
E                      B
We're always on the longest yard,
C#m                          A
Oh they feel their feet get cold.

E              B
Hiding here, hiding there,
C#m                        A
Find them underneath the stairs,
E                B
People hiding everywhere,
C#m                        A
Trying to be still like a stone.

CHORUS

BRIDGE 
C#m        B  E   
My aim is so true,
A         E   B
I wanna show you,
C#m       B  E   
I'll try forever,
A                B 
I'm never gonna say "surrender".

CHORUS

OUTRO
E
Na na na na na na na
B                
Na na na na na na na
C#m
Na na na na na na na
A                       B
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
