Like A Soldier

Written by Johnny Cash

Published by Song of Cash Inc. ASCAP

G

G

With the twilight colors falling

And the evening laying shadows

D

Hidden memories come stealing from my mind

As I feel my own heart beating out

The simple joy of living

G

I wonder how I ever was that kind

But the wild road I was rambling

Was always out there calling

D7

And they said a hundred times I should have died

Then you reached down and touched me

And lifted me up with you

G

So, I believe they were roads that I was meant to ride

| C D G

|I'm like a soldier getting over the war

| C D7 G

|Like a young man getting over his crazy days

| C D7 Em

|Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways

|C D7 G

|I don't have to do that any more

| C D7 G

|I'm like a soldier getting over the war

There were nights I don't remember

And there's pain that I've forgotten

Other things I choose not to recall

There are faces that come to me

In my darkest secret memory

Faces that I wish would not come back at all

But in my dreams parade of lovers

From the other times and places

There's not one that matters now, no matter who

I'm just thankful for the journey

And that I've survived the battles

And that my spoils of victory are you

| C D G

|I'm like a soldier getting over the war

| C D7 G

|Like a young man getting over his crazy days

| C D7 Em

|Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways

|C D7 G

|Every day gets better than before

| C D7 G

|I'm like a soldier getting over the war
