Verse 1:
Jimmy wasn't
really popular
He had a couple of
friends back home
Sooner or later they're
all getting out
So he had to
join up alone
He was dreaming
of the Ivy League
Since he was
only 3 feet tall
Get the hell out
of Jersey and then
He would never
look back at all
Chorus:
And then you hear them
say That miles away
We lost another one
that we sent with a gun
They're gonna miss him
M7
he was two weeks from twenty
And there's still no shame
From the man to blame
Verse 2:
Jimmy never had
a reason to stay
Cause all the
factories shut down
All he had was
a line for his name
So he could sign away
his right to be proud
He tried to kiss her
on the way out the door
But she just put her
little hand on his face
I don't understand why
you're leaving she said
But I hope you're
gonna ask me to wait
(Repeat Chorus)
Interlude: Am---F x2 Bb--Bbm--F-C/E-Dm--Gm--C7
Bridge:
F(hold)
Jimmy's mother went
G(hold)
to Capitol Hill
Em(hold)
So she could fill her
heart up with joy
Dm(hold)
Maybe shake a few
G(hold)
hands while she's there
Em(hold)
And tell him thank you
sir for taking my boy
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro:
still no shame
and We're all to blame
We're all to blame
We're all to blame
We're all to blame
F G F G F G F G F(hold)
We're all to blame
