Goo Goo Dolls - Soldier Acoustic

this is my favorite song off the new album . it’s very simple if you use a capo .

capo 3 ( all chords relative to capo position )

intro : Em C A2 x2

verse :

Em C A2
when you came back i knew you’d have a story
Em C A2
you need someone to ease the pain of living life
Em C A2
you’re like a soldier in the fray seeking shelter
Em C A2
from all the madness that you’ve seen , raining down now

chorus :

C D G
i know things change , your world has slipped away
C D G
i know things change , you’re living like A
C D G
soldier caught in the fray
Bm C
don’t lose your faith
D Em
it’s not so cold , it’s not too late

Em C A2 x2

verse :

Em C A2
when you were naive you were so invincible
Em C A2
and you laughed at anyone and anything that ever got in your way
Em C A2
but now the mirror shows the change , and you don’t see that
Em C A2
you’re sinking back into the crowd , an echo faded

chorus

bridge :

F#m D
and i never thought i’d see
Bm
you living on your knees
G#dim
a slave to some disease

that holds you captive
F#m D
and you can look inside of me
Bm
but the answers that you seek
G#dim
and everything you need

is all inside you

interlude : Em D A2 x4

chorus
