[Verse]
Am           G
   I keep a light in the window

Em         Am
    Dark band on my heart

Am                   G
    Some days are better than others

Em                   Am
    Mostly I'm drifting apart
[Verse]
Am            G
    I keep his picture beside me

Em             Am
    I see the dream in his eyes

Am             G
    I watch the light disappearing

Em          Am
     Into unsettled skies
[Chorus]
Am    G
      You say the world will be a better place

Am G
      After this war is won

Am   G
      You say no sacrifice to great but

C G    Am
Every soldier is a mother's son
[Verse]
Am G
    I know he can't take the killing

Em Am
    And how it messes with his soul

Am G
    I know the days are unending

Em Am
    When you're so far from home
[Chorus]
Am             G
    You say the world will be a better place

Am            G
    After this war is won

Am            G
    You say no sacrifice too great but

C         G                     Am
    Every soldier is a mother's son  (Repeat Chorus)
[Bridge]
Am              G
    No war that can be won

C        G                      Am
    Every soldier is a mother's son

            G
No war that can be won

C          G                     Am
     Every soldier is a mother's son
[Verse]
Am              G
      I keep a light in the window

Em              Am
      I keep a vigil inside

Am            G
      I say a prayer for those mothers

Em                Am
      Across the enemy lines
[Chorus] (x2)
C           G                      Am
      Every soldier is a mother's son  (x2)
