Intro: C G G7 C Csus4 C Csus4

              C Csus4   C Csus4     C                G      G7
 I got your letter, To-day,  And I miss you, Oh, So much here
         Am                C              C            G      G7
 I can't wait, To see you all, And I'm counting,  The days dear
            F                  C            C           F
 I still believe that there's gold, At the end of the world
                C Csus4       C Csus4       C          G  C Csus4 C Csus4
 And I'll come home,  To Illinois,  On the day after tomorrow


            C Csus4             C Csus4          C               G   G7
 It is so hard,  And it's cold here,   And I'm tired of taking orders
             Am           C                  C         G   G7
 And I miss old Rockford town,   Up by the Wisconsin border
         F                C                  C                F
 What I miss you won't believe,  Shovelling snow and raking leaves
          C Csus4          C  Csus4      C          G   C  Csus4  C Csus4
 And my plane, Will touch down,  On the day after tomorrow


             C Csus4       C Csus4        C                G    G7
 I close my eyes,  Every night,   And I dream, That I can hold you
                       Am              C                    C              G   G7
 They fill us full of lies,  Everyone buys, 'Bout what it means to be a soldier
                     F                   C                    C                  F
 I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel, 'Bout all the blood that's been spilled
                   C Csus4             C Csus4       C          G  C Csus4 C Csus4
 Will God on his throne,  Get me back home,  On the day after tomorrow


            C Csus4          C Csus4             C               G    G7
 You can't deny,  The other side, Don't want to die anymore than we do
                    Am                   C             C             G  G7
 What I'm tryin' to say,  Is don't they pray,  To the same God  that we do
          F             C               C               F
 Tell me how does God choose,   Whose prayers does he refuse
                  C Csus4              C Csus4      C          G  C Csus4 C Csus4
 Who turns  the wheel, Who throws the dice, On the day after tomorrow


               F      F             C
         Mmm mmmmm mmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm
               F      F             C     G
         Mmm mmmmm mmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmmm mmmmm


            C Csus4        C Csus4            C            G   G7
 I'm not fighting,  For justice,  I am not fighting for freedom
         Am             C                  C          G       G7
 I am fighting, For my life,  And another day in the world here
        F                  C                      C            F
 I just do what I've been told,  We're just the gravel in the road
                     C Csus4    C Csus4       C          G  C Csus4  C Csus4
 And only the lucky ones, Come home,  On the day after tomorrow


           C  Csus4           C Csus4             C                  G       G7
 And the Summer, It too will fade,  And with it brings the Winters frost dear
        Am               C                 C                  G      G7
 And I know, We too are made, Of all the things that we have lost here
           F          C              C            F
 I'll be twenty-one today,  I been saving all my pay
          C Csus4           C Csus4        C           G  C Csus4
 And my plane,  Will touch down,   On the day after tomorrow
          C Csus4           C Csus4        C           G   C Csus4  C Csus4   C
 And my plane,  Will touch down,   On the day after tomorrow
