I wrote her a letter yesterday 
              D        D5  D  D5 
Told her that I'm fine 
 A           A5                A  A5 
That I can't wait to come on back 
                  D       D5 D  D5 
And make up for lost time 
Bm       E 
The same life I promised her before 
G                            D 
I'm going to give her when I opened that door 

A            A5               A A5 
They say I'm here to fight their cause 
                  D           D5  D  D5 
And that I could die trying 
A              A5           A  A5 
I'd like to think their aim is true 
                  D            D5  D   D5 
But I think that they're lying 
Bm       E 
The same life I was living well before 
G                         D 
I'm taking back soon as I open that door 
A            A5                A  A5 
Lord, will I live to see that day? 
            D    D5  D   D5 
Deliver me a sign 
A           A5                A A5 
Cause it is only a matter of time 
              D      D5  D   D5 
Before I lose my mind 
                          (4x) (Bm D A E) 
Yeah, I'm losing my mind 
Bm       E 
The same life I was living well before 
G                         D 
I'm taking back soon as I open that door 
Bm          E 
Cause every day I wake up to this war 
G                            D 
I load up my gun and I can't tell you what for 

A             A5         A 
I wrote her a letter yesterday 
              D         D5  D   D5 
Told her that I'm fine 
A         A5              A A5 
I may not see her ever again 
              D         D5  D   D5 
But I'm gonna die trying 
          Bm 
I'm gonna die trying 
          E                       A 
I'm gonna die trying? die trying
