[Verse 1]
[G]Eighteen years old, ful[C]l of hat[G]e
They shipped me off in a [D]motorcade[G]
They said, "Boy, you're gonna [C]fight a [G]war
You don't even know
what you're [D]fighting [G]for"
I lost friends in the [C]August [G]heat
At night it was God I'd [D]always [G]meet
I said, "Lord, won't you [C]bring me [G]home?
I've got women in the West I [D]wanna hold"

[Verse 2]
[G]And I lost you in a wai[C]tin' roo[G]m
After sleepin' there for a [D]week or [G]two
Doctor said he did [C]all he [G]could
You were the last thing I had [D]that was [G]good
So I walked miles on the [C]Tulsa [G]streets
Light started beamin' in [D]from the [G]east
6 AM and fucked [C]up a[G]gain
Askin' God where the [D]hell
[G]He'd [G]been[G]

[Chorus 1]
He said the [C]sun's gonna rise to[G]morrow
Somewhere on [D]the east side of [Em]sorrow
You [C]better pack your bags [G]west
Stick out your [D]chest
And then hit the [Em]road
The [C]sun's gonna rise to[G]morrow
Somewhere on [D]the east side of [Em]sorrow
[C]Don't give it a reason to [G]follow
Let it [D]be, then let it [Em]go
Let it [C]be, [G]the[D]n let it go[Em]
[C][G][D][Em]

[G][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Heard your brother lost his mind
in the [C]city last [G]fall
Was it his blood, or his conscience,
or the [D]alco[G]hol?
Did the Navy do him well
or did he [C]wind up [G]sick
Like every other brave boy
from these [D]run down [G]sticks?
Do you ever get tired of [C]singin' [G]songs
Like all your pain
is just another fuckin' [D]sing [G]along?
If you ever get the time [C]come on [G]home
I heard Turnpike's back together
and they're [D]writin' [G]songs

[Chorus 2]
He said the [C]sun's gonna rise to[G]morrow
Somewhere on [D]the east side of [Em]sorrow
You [C]better pack your bags [G]west
Stick out your [D]chest
And then hit the [Em]road
[C][G][D][Em]
[C][G][D][Em]

[Outro 1]
The [C]sun's gonna rise to[G]morrow
Somewhere on [D]the east side of [Em]sorrow
[C]Don't give it a reason to [G]follow
Let it [D]be, then let it [Em]go
Let it [C]be, [G]the[D]n let it go[Em]
