The Soldier Has Come Home Lyrics & Tabs by Barry Sadler

The Soldier Has Come Home

guitar chords lyrics

Barry Sadler

Lay the green sod on me
carve my name in stone
lay the green sod on me

the soldier has come home
don't mourn for me, my darling
don't cry when I am gone
don't mourn for me, my darling
the soldier will come home
my friends have gone before me
and layed their tired bodies down
my friends have gone before me
to prepare the resting ground
let me go to sleep now
to march and fight no more
let me go to sleep now

let me go to sleep now
to march and fight no more
let me go to sleep now
I'm tired, my body's sore
so lay the green sod on me
put the wreath upon my stone
lay the green sod on me
the soldier has come home
(the soldier has come home)
