What kinda life is there here for us now
   G                    F#m
we gotta get out of the red somehow

We got all the love we need
G
we'll have a dime or two if I succeed

F                          C         G        F    G
our kids won't breathe the smoke and dust, no way
C                   F       G
The waiting will be so worthwhile
F                   C         G         F    G
if they can play in fields of green all day
Em                G
So, if you hear a voice you know
Am             Em
playin' on the radio
F                  G              A
then you know that I will soon be home
