Intro: E - E4 2x
E E4
This is for you my friend
E E4
I'm waiting on the other end
E E4
checkin' every day to see
E - E4
if you wrote me a letter
E E4
This is 'cause I miss my friend
E E4
off fighting with the other men
E E4
but you know I couldn't be more proud
E E4
even if I felt better
Chorus:
AE E4
'Cause the same man who held me so close that night
AE - E4
is the same man who is sleeping with his gun
AE E4
And the same man who would never ever start a fight
AE E4
is the same man who would never ever run
E E4
I thought of you again last night
E E4
Thought of you in a brand new light
E E4
Head high with your proud stare
E E4
never looking back
E E4
I know you'll fight bravely
E E4
I know it 'cause you promised me
E E4
soon you'll be home with your short hair
E - E4
and your funny little laugh
AE E4
'Cause the same man who left me speechless with his eyes
AE - E4
is the same man now squinting in the sun
AE E4
And the same man who would never ever start a fight
A D4 A
is the same man who would never ever run
AE E4
And the same man who left my heart all big and sore
AE E4
is the same man now facing his death
AE E4
And the same man who would never ever start a war
AE - E4
is the same man who would always protect
