Tabbed by Josh Whittaker's brother
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[D]I was born on a [G]railroad track
With the [D]weight of the world strapped [A]to my back
[D]Born to be a [G]soldier boy, [D]born to be a [A]soldier boy
[D]Looking for a life in a [G]graveyard town
If you [D]never get lost, you [A]never get found
[D]Born to be a [G]soldier boy, [D]born to be a [A]soldier boy
[D]Born to be a [G]soldier boy, [D]born to be a [A]soldier boy
[D] [G] [D] [A]
I fell in love with an impossible girl
She was my breath in this strangled world
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be soldier boy
She broke my heart with my best friend's name
Now my mind still works, but it's not the same
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
We go...
So many people wanna watch things grow
Either they're blind or they just don't know
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
My Daddy was done before he turned nineteen
My Momma was run like a fast machine
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
So I cross my heart and I hope to die
Like an aeroplane, baby, coming out of the sky
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
We go...
