    CIts (x32010@1)January 1970 
         Gdo (320003@1)you remember me
    FYou (133211@1)put me on a boat across 
               Gthe (320003@1)sea in the name of victory
    CBut (x32010@1)much to my surprised when I 
                     Garrived (320003@1)there was no welcoming committee

Refrain:

Gwith (320003@1)a bayonet
F (133211@1) and as I ran towards 
       Ghim (320003@1)he hardly broke a sweat
C (x32010@1) When I took his life 
   Ghe (320003@1)fell to his knees
F (133211@1) And as his eyes began to
Gfade (320003@1)he whispered softly


Chorus 1:

 Gaway (320003@1)from here

picture of his children and his 
G (320003@1)        Ffamily (133211@1)And I began to realize this 
                      Gperson (320003@1)I despised, in actuality
    CWas (x32010@1)not much different from
myself we probably could have 
                  Gtaught (320003@1)each other many things
    FAnd (133211@1)now I know its much too 
ate although I couldn't hesitate
  GI checked his gun and 

his chamber was empty


(Repeat Refrain)
