Gmaj7 Fm Bm Gmaj7 Fm Bm Gmaj7 Fm Bm
D A Fm
Listen old soldier where ever you are
G D A
Hills of the valley`s come near or come far
D A Fm
You say youth is a treasure we waste when we`re young
G D A Gmaj7
So come down from the place where your medals are hung
G A D Bm
Your forever returning and learning to fight
G A Gmaj7 Fm Bm
And you feel just like an old soldier tonight
D A Fm
Listen old soldier cause time doesn`t wait
G D A
Moon`s on your shoulder the hour is late
D A Fm
Something there inside still calls out to you
G D A Gmaj7
And you won`t fade away whatever you do
G A D Bm
Your forever beginning barely winning the fight
G A Gmaj 7
You feel just like an old soldier tonight
G A Fm Gmaj7
Your not getting any younger that much is true
G A Fm Gmaj7
But your still got that hunger burning in you
Asus
So what`ll you do now
Harmonica
Asus Gmaj Fm Bm
So what`ll you do now
D A Fm
Listen old soldier to the sound in your ear
G D A
Of too many battles for too many years
D A Fm
There`s only one thing you`ve learned in defeat
G D A Gmaj7
Is that losing is bitter and victor is sweet
G A D Bm
Your always unraveling and traveling lite
G A G
And you feel like an old soldier tonight
G A Gmaj 7 Fm Bm
And you feel like an old soldier tonight
