This is my first guitar tab entry so I apologize if there are any errors. Travelin' Soldier ? Dixie Chicks G Two days past eighteen He was waiting for the bus in his army green Cadd9 Sat down in a booth in a cafe there G Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair He's a little shy so she gives him a smile And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while Cadd9 And talking to me, G I'm feeling a little low D/F# Cadd9 G She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go G So they went down and they sat on the pier He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care Cadd9 G I got no one to send a letter to D/F# Cadd9 G Would you mind if I sent one back here to you D/F# Em I cried C Never gonna hold the hand of another guy G Too young for him they told her D/F# Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C Waitin' for the soldier to come back again G D/F# Never more to be alone when the letter said G A soldier's coming home G So the letters came from an army camp In California then Vietnam Cadd9 And he told her of his heart G It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of He said when it's getting kinda rough over here I think of that day sittin' down at the pier Cadd9 G And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile D/F# Cadd9 G Don't worry but I won't be able to write for awhile D/F# Em I cried C Never gonna hold the hand of another guy G Too young for him they told her D/F# Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C Waitin' for the soldier to come back again G D/F# Never more to be alone when the letter said G A soldier's coming home G (1 strum) One Friday night at a football game G (1 strum) The Lord's Prayer said and the Anthem sang Cadd9 (1 strum) A man said folks would you bow your heads G (1 strum) For a list of local Vietnam dead G Crying all alone under the stands Was a piccolo player in the marching band Cadd9 And one name read but nobody really cared D/F# Cadd9 G But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair D/F# Em I cried C Never gonna hold the hand of another guy G Too young for him they told her D/F# Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C Waitin' for the soldier to come back again G D/F# Never more to be alone when the letter said G A soldier's coming D/F# Em I cried C Never gonna hold the hand of another guy G Too young for him they told her D/F# Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier Em Our love will never end C Waitin' for the soldier to come back again G D/F# Never more to be alone when the letter said G A soldier's coming home
