G
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
(chorus 1)
        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
it with your gun
     G                                      Am
Now, you are one, one of the brave few it's awful sad we
G              D     G
Need boys like you i hope the day never comes for here's
                               Am      G
Your live round, son stock and barrel, safety trigger
            D
Here's your gun
(chorus 2)
      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 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
                G
would expect me to.
(4 bars of G)
          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
(chorus 3)
      G            D          C                    G
For i knew i could see it was all cut and dried to me
          Am                   G
There was soldier's blue blood streaming inside your
D               G                     D
Veins there's a world outside of this room and when
C                   G  Am        G
You meet it promise me you won't meet it with
     D                           G        C
Your gun, taking aim for i don't mean, to argue that
        G                    C     G
They've made a decent boy of you i don't mean to spoil
     D              C            D
Your home coming my baby brother jude
           G       C           G           C
No i don't mean to hurt you by saying this again
           G              D                    C
They're so good at making soldiers but they're not
                  G
As good at making men
