there[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 2]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe's a little shy so she give him a smile[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd he said would you mind sittin' down for a while[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]D[/ch]                                  [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd talkin' to me, I'm feelin' a little low[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]G[/ch]                 [ch]D[/ch]\r\nShe said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 3]\r\n[tab]         [ch]A[/ch]\r\nSo they

you[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Chorus]\r\n[tab][ch]F#m[/ch]\r\n I cried[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nNever gonna hold the hand of another guy[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nToo young, for him they told her[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]E[/ch]\r\nWaitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]F#m[/ch]\r\nOur love will never end[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWaitin' for the soldier to come back

home[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 4]\r\n[tab]         [ch]A[/ch]\r\nSo the letters came from an army camp[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nIn California then Afghanistan[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd he told her of his heart, it might be love[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd all of the things that he was so scared of[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[Verse 5]\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe said when it's gettin' kinda rough over here[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nI think of that day sittin' down at the pier[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]                              [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd I
