[Verse 1]
G
My dearest darlin',
Em7
I miss you more than
words can tell
D
I hope the garden's growin' tall,
Cadd9
you're in good spirits and
good health
G
We've traveled far now,
Em7
with a long way to go still
D
I know not yet, when I return,
Cadd9
or if I ever will

[Verse 2]
G
Each day grows colder,
Em7
filled with powder,
smoke, and steel
D
I worry 'for its over,
Cadd9
I've forgotten how to feel
G
I keep your picture,
Em7
in the pocket of my coat
D
I sometimes find, when I'm alone,
Cadd9
it's my last bit of hope

[Chorus]
Cadd9
Amidst the grips of
G
these troubled times
D Em7
A way back to you, I always find
Cadd9
You're the wind that
G
whispers through the pines
D
The bloom in the rose,
Em7
the green on the vine
Cadd9
Until we meet again my
G
love's sincerely signed
D Em7
I'm ever yours, you're ever mine

[Verse 3]
G
Some of these boys,
Em7
aren't much older than our own
D
They fight like men, and then
Cadd9
get cut down before they're grown
G
This is my prayer,
Em7
that our daughter and our sons
D
Wrap their arms around each other,
Cadd9
and never around a gun
