Intro: C



Verse 1:

          C            Bm
I've been home about 6 months now
    Am  
And I still have my doubts
    F
I'm not sure how I got here
   G
Or how I'm gonna get out



   C           Bm
My mama says I look the same
     Am
as I did before I left
       F
But if she could see inside of me
          G
It would, scare her to death


Chorus:

      F                                G
I can still taste the powder, from the barrel of my gun
          F                           G
And I can hear my sergeant screamin' "run soldier run"
      F                                 G
I can feel the backpack on my shoulder, god it weighted a ton.
    Am             G               F
And I see death in every single thought.
      C                                   G
They taught me how to put that uniform on

But I just cant get it off.

Verse 2:

      C            Bm
Last Saturday they honored us
     Am
In a small parade downtown.
    F
And when they set off those fireworks
  G
I nearly hit the ground.


      C               Bm
While they smiled and cheered for us
    Am
All I could do was stare.
      F
Cause half of me is here at home
     G
And half of me is back there.


*Chorus*
Am  G
Break:
     F                       C  Bm
Yeah there's no end in sight
        Am              G
Cause' even though I'm home now,
          F
I'm still fighting for me life.

*Chorus*
