Traveling Soldier: Dixie chicks
G
Two days past 18 he was waiting for a bus in his army greens
Cadd9 G
Sat down at a booth in a cafe there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in
her hair
G
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile and he said would you mind
Cadd9 G
Sittin down for a while and talking to me, I'm feeling a little low
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've got no one to send a letter to. Would you mind if I sent one back here
to you?"
Em
I cried
C
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
G
Too young, for him they told her
D
Waitin for the love of a travelin soldier
Em
Our love will never end
C
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
G
Never more to be alone
D G
When the letters said, a soldiers coming home
G
So the letters came from an army camp, in California then Vietnam
Cadd9 G
And he told her of his heart, might be lovin all of things he was so
