Sara Bareilles – Song For A Soldier (Guitar)

C   Em   Am   F
Ooh...

F              C
Since you went away, 

Em                                                 Am
You can color me, colour me, colour me, colour me in grey

   F                               C
So I'm working on the words I want to say

Em                                        Am
I never knew, never knew, never knew your name

        F
(You're) just my soldier, babe

F                     C
You lost track of the days

Em                                               Am
They come and they go, and they come and they go there's no way

     F
that I could keep up with it

       C
And I pray

Em                                       Am
And I wonder, wonder, wonder if you hear me

    F
Ten thousand miles away

G                         Am      F
Hey soldier   I'm missing your life

C                                   Em
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright

               Am
Sending you my love and a little light

F                            G               C
 I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight

Em                                                    Am
You know it's gonna take, gonna take, gonna take more time

           F                      C
Till we're staring up at the same sky

       Em                                                 Am
And so I'm going to wait, going to wait, going to wait in line

     F
Till my soldier's mine

G                         Am      F
Hey soldier   I'm missing your life

C                                   Em
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright

               Am
Sending you my love and a little light

F                            G                Am
I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight

            Em
I don't care how long it takes

Am            G     C
I'm not going anywhere, love (no)

          Em                Am
You see there this distance only makes me 

F
Say it over and over till it gets to you

         C   G   Am  F  
My soldier (ooh  ooh ooh ...)

G                         Am      F
Hey soldier   I'm missing your life

C                                   Em
Wish I could hold ya and make it alright

               Am
Sending you my love and a little light

F                               c               Em
I never told ya that you're my soldier (but) goodnight

               Am
Sending you my love and a little light

         F                 Am       F
I never told ya that you're my soldier

C
Goodnight (Goodnight) Goodnight (Goodnight)

Em                              Am
Goodnight, Goodnight, Goodnight, Goodnight

F
 Mmm...
