Intro: G7 C (4x)
G7 C
Got a song about a soldier
G7 C
Ridin somewhere on a train
G7 C
Empty sleeve pinned to his shoulder
G7 C
And some pills to ease the pain
F C
Started drinkin in El Paso
F C
He was drunk by San Antone
F C
Tellin strangers who were sleepin
G7 D7
How he hated goin home
CHORUS 1:
C G7
Just a simple song of freedom
C G7
He was never fightin for
C G7
No one's listenin 'til you need 'em
F C Am
Ain't no fun to sing that song no more
Got a song about a sister

Waitin lonesome by the phone
For some man who never missed her
Ever since he come and gone
And it's harder for a woman
With a baby on the way
That's the price of bein' human
When you're poor enough to pay
CHORUS 2:
So she listens to the freedom
In the silence at her door
No one's missin 'til you need 'em
Ain't no fun to sing that song no more
Got a song about a savior
Lookin lonesome and afraid
At a city full of strangers
And a cross he never made
And he's sadder than he's wiser
And a longer way from home
And he wonders why his father
Left him bleeding and alone
CHORUS 3:
Just a broken song of freedom
And the closing of a door
No one's missin' til you need 'em
Ain't no fun to sing that song no more
