intro : D

G
he won the war , in a foreign land
Bm
that was no hero , that was my old man
Em
and he came back home , where he met his wife
C
and he raised his kids , while he made a life
G
now he never preached , though he always knew
Bm
and we watched him close , just to pick up clues
Em
and sometimes late , in the dead of night
C G
i can see him there , in the pale moon light
D
i Am trying
C Em Am
and i don’t know how
C Em Am
and i don’t know when
C Em Am D G D
but i’ll have to tell him someday
G
and as for this woman , my father wed
Bm
we knew we were loved , with the words unsaid
Em
and when we were young she taught us all to read
C
and then one by one , she would watch us leave
G
never saw her cry , for she hid her tears
Bm
as one by one , we would disappear
Em
but of course we’d write , and of course we’d call
C G
just to hear her voice , whenever we would fall
D
i Am trying
C Em Am
and i don’t know how
C Em Am
and i don’t know when
C Em Am D G D
but i’ll have to tell her someday
G
so i wrote these words , and i hope they last
Bm
for the years have come , and the years have past
Em
think of all they gave , think of all the debt
C
but can’t find a way , to repay them yet
G
for the days still come , and the debt still mount
Bm
and do words unsaid , ever really count
Em
but sometimes still , in the dead of night
C G
i can see them there , in the pale moon light
D
i Am trying
C Em Am
and i don’t know how
C Em Am
and i don’t know when
C Em Am D G
but i’ll have to tell them someday
