D
Leaves from the vine
D
Falling so slow
      Bm
Like fragile, tiny shells
G               D
Drifting in the foam.
D
Little soldier boy

Come marching home
Bm
Brave soldier boy
G             D
Come marching home


D
Ash in the snow

Falling so slow
     Bm
Like fragile, broken hearts
     G           D
With no place to go.
D
Little soldier boy

Come marching home
Bm
Brave soldier boy
G             D
Come marching home


D
He thought he knew
    
What he was fighting for,
Bm
But the sight of blood
     G             D
Made him question war.
D
Poor soldier boy

Cold and alone,
Bm
Bombs fall like rain,
G        D
He's all alone.


D
Those leaves did grow

From branches overgrown
Bm
Drifting slowly down
G              D
Resting in the snow.
D
Little soldier boy

Taken from home
Bm
Forced to fight a war
G               D
That is not his own.


D
Leaves from the vine

Changing so slow
Bm
Like empty, fallen souls
G             D
Looking for a home.
D
Little soldier boy

Thought that he could soar
Bm
Brave soldier boy
G             D
Died in that war.
