So anyway, make sure to keep up with us.
I'm going to stop jabbering and sing you guys a song here.
This one is a solo, obviously, [N] and it's off our first CD called Chapter on Roots.
It's called
My Soldier, and I just want to send it out to any servicemen, servicewomen, and their families that
may be here.
This song is a thank you to you guys.
I think of my soldier gone to [Ab] the war
[N] And camped on the wings of a dark foreign ship
He [Gb] dares not to sleep there for fear [Ab] of his life
[N] It was only a fortnight he made me his wife
[F] I played him a tune with the [N] whole concern
He said I would see him upon his return
So full of devotion and right [A] valiant youth
I [Bb] pray every moment his words [Ab] be true
[F]
I think of our soldier, fragile and free
And long for the day when together we'll be
I think of my soldier, far from his [Ab] home
The green road in his hair he often [Db] did roam
[F] The sweet winding rivers and valleys [Eb] beside
[Bb] Replaced by the things where his friends fled and [D] died
[Db] I [Bb] think of these seedy vines, paid with their lives
To know [Ab] that [G]
somewhere he [Ebm] survived
[F] I think of my soldier, gone to the war
[Eb] And camped on the wings of a dark foreign [Bb] ship
I watch over the [C] ocean, both early and late
[Bbm] It won't be much [Bb] longer that he'll have to wait
No, it won't be much longer [C] that he'll [N] have to wait
