VIETNAM POST-TRAUMATIC BLUES

 

Lachlan Irvine

 

I've got the [E] Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

I'm gonna [G] sing [A] my [E] song

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

Gonna [G] sing [A] my [E] song

If you've [B] got the post-traumatic [A] blues,

You can sing a-[E]-long [G][A][E]

 

I've got the [E] Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

And I [G] get [A] a-[E]-round

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

I really [G] get [A] a-[E]-round

No [B] matter how I try

[A] I just can't settle [E] down [G][A][E]

 

[E] I've got the Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

And it [G] don't [A] seem [E] fair

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

No, it [G] don't [A] seem [E] fair

I've had [B] sleepless nights

[A] More than I can [E] bear [G][A][E]

 

I've got the [E] Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

And I [G] don't [A] know [E] why

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

And I [G] don't [A] know [E] why

[B] One thing I do know

[A] I made a good woman [E] cry [G][A][E]

 

I've got the [E] Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

Every-[G]-where [A] I [E] go

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

Every-[G]-where [A] I [E] go

[B] Don't ask me was it worth it

[A] I'll tell you I don't [E] know [G][A][E]

 

I've got the [E] Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

But don't you [G] cry [A] for [E] me

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

Don't you [G] cry [A] for [E] me

I've [B] seen a lot of things

[A] You will never [E] see [G][A][E]

 

I've got the [E] Vietnam [A] post-traumatic [E] blues

Now you've [G] heard [A] my [E] song

I've got the [A] Vietnam post-traumatic [E] blues

Now you've [G] heard [A] my [E] song

It's [B] over now

[A] Time to move a-[E]-long [G][A][E]
