[G]Armed with the power of his [Am]homeland
(his homeland)
[F]Boots laced tight
and a [C]ticket in his hand
[G]Never to return home [Am]again
So he [F]lost what he knows
and what [C]all is right
For [G]a broken world and a w[Am]orld of lies
But the [F]days were numbered,
re[C]lationships suffered
He [G]lost the faith
of [F]all those who mattered so

So [F]Jessie thought that she was [C]all that
(all that)
[G]Thought she was heading
on the [Am]right track (right track)
Left her [F]mates at the gate
as she [C]walked away
Ooh, [G]never to look back [Am]again
So she [F]lost what she knows
and what [C]all is right
For [G]a brand new image and a w[Am]orld of lies
But the [F]days were numbered,
re[C]lationships suffered
She [G]lost the faith
of [F]all those who mattered so
