Bb
Leaves from the vine
Bb
Falling so slow
      Gm
Like fragile, tiny shells
Eb               Bb
Drifting in the foam.
Bb
Little soldier boy

Come marching home
Gm
Brave soldier boy
Eb             Bb
Come marching home


Bb
Ash in the snow

Falling so slow
     Gm
Like fragile, broken hearts
     Eb           Bb
With no place to go.
Bb
Little soldier boy

Come marching home
Gm
Brave soldier boy
Eb             Bb
Come marching home


Bb
He thought he knew
    
What he was fighting for,
Gm
But the sight of blood
     Eb             Bb
Made him question war.
Bb
Poor soldier boy

Cold and alone,
Gm
Bombs fall like rain,
Eb        Bb
He's all alone.


Bb
Those leaves did grow

From branches overgrown
Gm
Drifting slowly down
Eb              Bb
Resting in the snow.
Bb
Little soldier boy

Taken from home
Gm
Forced to fight a war
Eb               Bb
That is not his own.


Bb
Leaves from the vine

Changing so slow
Gm
Like empty, fallen souls
Eb             Bb
Looking for a home.
Bb
Little soldier boy

Thought that he could soar
Gm
Brave soldier boy
Eb             Bb
Died in that war.
