'Like A Soldier' by Johnny Cash - Guitar Tutorial

                        G                     
 With the twilight colors falling 
 And the evening laying shadows 
                                         D   
 Hidden memories come stealing from my mind 
 As I feel my own heart beating out 
 The simple joy of living 
                                 G   
 I wonder how I ever was that kind 
 
 But the wild road I was rambling 
 Was always out there calling 
                                                D7   
 And they said a hundred times I should have died 
 Then you reached down and touched me 
 And lifted me up with you 
                                                      G   
 So, I believe they were roads that I was meant to ride 
 
|               C               D      G   
|I'm like a soldier getting over the war   
|           C                 D7        G           
|Like a young man getting over his crazy days 
|        C                 D7             Em    
|Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways 
| C                  D7          G   
|I don't have to do that any more   
|               C               D7     G   
|I'm like a soldier getting over the war 
 
 There were nights I don't remember 
 And there's pain that I've forgotten 
 Other things I choose not to recall 
 There are faces that come to me 
 In my darkest secret memory 
 Faces that I wish would not come back at all 
 But in my dreams parade of lovers 
 From the other times and places 
 There's not one that matters now, no matter who 
 I'm just thankful for the journey 
 And that I've survived the battles 
 And that my spoils of victory are you 
 
|               C               D      G   
|I'm like a soldier getting over the war   
|           C                 D7       G           
|Like a young man getting over his crazy days 
|        C                 D7            Em    
|Like a bandit getting over his lawless ways 
| C                D7            G   
|Every day gets better than before    
|               C               D7    G   
|I'm like a soldier getting over the war
