I got your letter today
And I miss you all so [A] much here
I [D] can't wait [G] to see you all
And I'm counting down [A] the days, dear
I still believe that there [D] is gold
At [Bm] the end of the world
And I'll [D] come home [G] to [D] Illinois
[G] On [D] the day after [A] tomorrow
[D]
It's so hot and [D] it's cold [G] here
And [D] I'm tired of taking [A] orders
And I miss [G] old [D] Rockford town
[G]
Out by [D] the Wisconsin [A] border
What [G] I miss you all [D] believe
[Bm] Shoveling snow and raking [G] leaves
And [D] my plane [G] will touch [G] down
[D] On the day after [A] tomorrow
[D] [G]
[D] I close my eyes every night
And I dream that I [A] can hold you
They fill [D] us full of lies
Everyone buys about what it means
To be [A] a soldier
I still [G] don't know how I'm [D] supposed to feel
About [Bm] all the blood that's [G] been spilled
Oh [D] God on His throne
Get me back home on the day after [A] tomorrow
[D] [G] [D]
[A]
[D]
You [A]
[D] can't deny the other side
[E] Don't wanna [D] die anymore [A] than we do
What I'm trying [D] to say [D] is
Don't they pray to the same God [A] that we do
And tell me [G] how does God [D] choose
Whose [Bm] prayers does He [G] refuse
Who turns the wheel, [G] who rolls [D] the dice
On the day after [A] tomorrow
[D]
I'm not fighting [G]
for [D] justice
I'm not fighting [A] for freedom
I [D]
am just fighting [G] for [D] my life
And another day in [A] this world here
I [G] just do what I've been [D] told
We're just [Bm] the gravel on [G] the road
And only [D] the lucky [G]
ones come [D] home
[G] On the [D] day after [A] tomorrow
[D] [G]
[D] And the summer it too will fade
[G] And with [D] it brings the [A] winter's [F#m] frosty
[D] And I know [G] we too [D] are made
Of all [D] the things that we [Am] have lost here
[G] I'll be [G]
21 [D] today
I've been [Bm]
saving all my [G] pay
And my [D]
plane [E] will [D] touch down
On the day after [A] tomorrow
[D] [G] [D]
