Veteran's Day

(início)

verse 1
 A                                            D
Well I used to hang out down at the local VFW hall
     A                                  E
And stare at the photographs up on the wall
      A                                                    D
Of the neighborhood boys that died in the wars we've been through
       A                              E               A
And the hand lettered sign that said remember Jimmy McGrew
verse 2
 A                               D
Well Jimmy went to Nam back in 1965
A                                                             E
But there's a lot of men here that think Jimmy McGrew's still alive
            A                                        D
Though they carved his name on a stone in Washington DC
    A                        E                          A
His brother said that stone don't prove a d**n thing to me
Refrão -------------
            D                     A
It's veteran's day and the skies are gray
                                                      E
Leave the uniforms home cause there ain't gonna be a parade
         A                                                  D
But we'll fill up a glass for the ones that didn't make it through
           A                     E                 A
And leave a light in the window tonight for Jimmy McGrew

verse 3
There's a hot rain fallin' on the back streets of Saigon
There's an old soldier stumblin' down the alley with his mama-san
Lord his eyes are cloudy and his arms are black and blue
He's just hangin' by a thread and he looks like Jimmy McGrew
CHORUS:
