Intro: C  G  Am  E



Verses: Am  G



Chorus: C  G  Am  E



 Here's to the lonely old soldiers



Gonna walk into the street

With the confidence on apex predator

Gonna ask the first pretty girl i meet

If she fancies a trip to the west end cinema



I will sit her in the back row tell her what i know

Listen to her whispers share her shadow

I will fall into line with the evening tide

Ready present arms open wide



All my best laid plans, they might have to wait 'till tomorrow

Coz it's been an hour since i took off

And there's no pretty girls to speak of ..Yeh right



How will i sit her in the back row tell her what i know

Listen to her whispers share her shadow

When i march 'round the corner into a post

What the hell am i doing must admit that i dont know I dont know



Here's to the lonely old soldiers

Here's to the lonely old soldiers

Here's to the lonely old soldiers

Here's to the lonely old boys



How will i sit her in the back row tell her what i know

Listen to her whispers share her shadow

Will i sit her in a row bare my soul

Listen to her whispers share her shadow



I dont know
