Soldier
if you're playing this on the piano a lot of the chords sound best inverted
INTRO
Gm F Bb Eb Bb F
La la la la la la, la la la la la
Gm F Bb Eb F
La ra la ra ra ra, la ra la ra ra
VERSE 1
Bb F
Where did all the people go?
Gm Eb
They got scared when the lights went low.
Bb F
I get you through it nice and slow,
Gm Eb
When the world's spinning out of control.
Bb F
Afraid of what they might lose
Gm Eb
Might get scraped or they might get bruised.
Bb F
You could beg and what's the use
Gm Eb
That's why it's called the moment of truth
CHORUS
Bb
I'd get it if you need it,
F F/F#
I'll search if you don't see it,
Gm
You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
Eb F You get hurt, I'll take your pain.
Bb
I know you don't believe it,
F F/F#
But I said it and I still mean it,
Gm
When you heard what I told you,
Eb F
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
VERSE 2
Bb F
Funny when times get hard,
Gm Eb
At the last moment when you're supposed to charge,
Bb F
We're always on the longest yard,
Gm Eb
Oh they feel their feet get cold.
Bb F
Hiding here, hiding there,
Gm Eb
Find them underneath the stairs,
Bb F
People hiding everywhere,
Gm Eb
Trying to be still like a stone.
CHORUS
Bb
I'd get it if you need it,
F F/F#
I'll search if you don't see it,

You're thirsty, I'll be rain,

Bb
I know you don't believe it,
F F/F#
But I said it and I still mean it,
Gm
When you heard what I told you,
Eb F
When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
BRIDGE
Gm F Bb
My aim is so true,
Eb Bb F
I wanna show you,
Gm F Bb
I'll try forever,
Eb F
I'm never gonna say "surrender".
