I always knew that you would take yourself far from home
   Am          G                D
As soon as, as far as you could go
          G
By the quarter inch cut of your hair and the army issued
              Am                   G                 D
green For the past six weeks I can tell Where you've been

                G             D          C
        For I knew, I could see it was all cut and dried
           G            Am                   G
        to me There was soldier's blue blood streaming inside
            D               G                     D
        your veins There is a world outside of this room
                   C               G       Am        G
        And when you meet it promise me that you won't meet
                     D

           G            Am                   G
        to me There was soldier's blue blood streaming inside
            D               G                     D
        your veins There is a world outside of this room
                   C               G  Am        G
        And when you meet it promise me you won't meet
                     D                         G       C
        It with your gun taking aim no I don’t mean to argue
                   G                    C
        That they've made a decent boy of you I don't
        G                   D               C
        mean to spoil your home coming, but Baby brother you

        would expect me to.

          Am             G                   D
Stock and barrel, safety trigger here’s your gun
       G
So now does your heart pitter-pat with that patriotic sound
         Am                 G         D
When you see the stripes of Old Glory waving

      G            D          C                    G
For I knew I could see It was all cut and dried to me

           G              D                    C

                  G
as good at making Men
