xVerse Am G I keep a light in the window Am Dark band on my heart Am G Some days are better than others Am Mostly I'm drifting apart Verse Am G I keep his picture beside me Am I see the dream in his eyes Am G I watch the light disappearing Am Into unsettled skies Chorus Am G You say the world will be a better place Am G After this war is won Am G You say no sacrifice to great but Dm G Am Every soldier is a mother's son Verse Am G I know he can't take the killing Am And how it messes with his soul Am G I know the days are unending Am When you're so far from home Chorus Am G You say the world will be a better place Am G After this war is won Am G You say no sacrifice too great but Dm G Am Every soldier is a mother's son (Repeat Chorus) Bridge Am G No war that can be won Dm G Am Every soldier is a mother's son G No war that can be won Dm G Am Every soldier is a mother's son Verse Am G I keep a light in the window Am I keep a vigil inside Am G I say a prayer for those mothers Am Across the enemy lines Chorus x 2 Dm G Am Every soldier is a mother's son x 2
