_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [A] _ I was [D] a PFC on [F] a search patrol [G] on Charlie [Bb] Down.
It [Dm] was in the jungle [C] wars of [Dm] 65. _ _
My weapon jammed [F] and I got stuck [G] way out and all [Bb] alone.
And I [Dm] could hear the enemy [C] moving in close [Dm] outside. _ _
[F] Just then I heard a [C] twig snap and I [Gm] grabbed my empty [Dm] gun.
And I [F] dug and stared while [Am] I counted down [Dm] my fate. _ _
[F] And then a big [C] marine, a giant [Gm] with a pair of [Dm] friendly eyes, [F] appeared there at [Am] my shoulder
and said [Dm] wait. _

Coming [F] through the brush [Am] all around [C] our [Dm] ears.
It [F] was then I saw this [C] big marine light [Gm] a fire in his [F] eye.
And it was [Am] strange but suddenly I [G] forgot my fear. _ _

_ [Dm] _ _ [C] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
we fought all night [F] side by side [G] we took our battles [Bb] dance.
And I [Dm] wondered how the [C] bullets missed this [Dm] man. _
Cause they seemed to go right [F] through him just [G] as if he wasn't [Bb] there.
And [Dm] the morning we pulled [C] took a [Dm] chance and ran. _
And it [F] was near [C] the river bank when the [Gm] ambush came [F] on top of us.
And I thought it [Am] was the end that we were [Dm] had. _

_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Dm] _
_ [F] _ _ [Am] _ _ [Dm] _ _
And I [F] knew there was something [C] weird about him.
[Gm] Cause when I turned around [Dm] he was pulling a big [F] palm tree right up out of the [Am] ground.
And [G] swatting those charlies with it.
[Bb] Feared a kingdom come.
_ [A] _ _
When [Dm] he led me out of danger I saw [G] my camp and waved [Bb] goodbye.
He [Dm] just waved at me from [C] the jungle and then [Dm] was gone. _
But when I got back to my [F] HQ I [G] told him about [Bb] my knife.
[Dm] And the battle I'd spent with [C] a big marine [Dm] named Camel Fudge.
When [F] I said his name [C] a soldier gulped [Dm] down a medic from my [F] arm.
And led me to [Am] a green tent on [Dm] the right. _
He [F] said you may be telling [Am] true boy but [Bb] this here is Camel [Dm]
Fudge.
And [F] he's been right here [Am] since he passed away [G] last night. _
_ [Bb] In fact he's been here all week long.
[A] _ _ _
[Dm] But before he went he [F] said Semper Fi.
[G] And said his only [Bb] wish was to save [C] a young marine caught in a [Dm] little rock. _
So here take this dog tag son.
[F] I know [G] he wants you to have it [Bb] now.
And [Dm] we both said a prayer [C] for a big marine [Dm] named Camel Fudge. _
