Belle and Sebastian - I Fought in a War: chords

Em                       A
I fought in a war and I left my friends behind me
      C                              B	
To go looking for the enemy, and it wasn't very long
Em                          A	
Before I would stand with another boy in front of me
       C
And a corpse that just fell into me,
          B
with the bullets flying round...

Chorus:
         G                              Am
And I reminded myself of the words you said
when we were getting on
       C                                        B
And I bet youre making shells back home for a steady
boy to wear
           G                                 Am
Round his neck, well it wont hurt to think of you
as if youre waiting for
      C                            B
This letter to arrive because Ill be here
quite a while

I fought in a war
And I left my friends behind me
To go looking for the enemy
And it wasn't very long
Before I found out
That the sickness there ahead of me
Went beyond the bedsit infamy
        B             D
Of the decade gone before

Chorus:
I reminded myself of the words you said
When we were getting on
And I bet you're making shells back home
For a steady man to wear
'Round his neck
Well, it won't hurt to think of you
As if you're waiting for this letter to arrive
Because I'll be here quite a while

I fought in a war
I didn't know where it would end
It stretched before me infinitely
I couldn't really think
Of a day beyond now
Keep your head down, pal, there's trouble plenty
In this hour, this day
I can see hope, I can see light

Chorus:
I reminded myself of the looks you gave
When we were getting on
I bet you're making shells back home
For a steady man to wear
'Round his neck
Well, it won't hurt to think of you
As if you're waiting for this letter to arrive
Because I'll be here quite a while
