E                       G
Aint found a way to kill me yet
E                 G
Eyes burn with stinging sweat

Nowhere um

Wife and kids, household pet
E               G
Army greens was no safe bet
E               G

E               G
Somewhere  um

E               G
Walking tall machine gun man
E                       G
They spit on me in my home land

Gloria sent me pictures of my
E               G
Boy
E                       G
Got my pills against mosquito death
E                        G
My buddy's breathing his dying breath
E               G
Oh God please won't you help me
                E       G
