Its January 1970
G
do you remember me
F
You put me on a boat across

the sea in the name of victory
C
But much to my surprised when I
G
arrived there was no welcoming committee
F
Instead there was a man for me to
G
kill and now I see all this too real
Refrain:
C
Then I saw him standing
G
with a bayonet
F
and as I ran towards
G
him he hardly broke a sweat
C
When I took his life
G
he fell to his knees
F
And as his eyes began to
G
fade he whispered softly
Chorus 1:
C
Godspeed this letter
G
away from here
F
I've sealed it with my tears
G
and stomped it with my

fists And godspeed this
G
letter away from you

My work down here is through
G
I'm on my way to better
C G F G
days and so are you

GI checked his gun and
his chamber was empty
