D               Em    A              D 
Soldier baby of mine, way across the sea 
D                 Em      A         D 
They?ve taken you through away from me 
 
                G              D                     
Soldier baby of mine I promise you 
             Em   A            D 
While you?re away I?m gonna be true 
 
Soldier baby of mine, I?m so alone 
But I?ll be right here to welcome you home 
 
Chorus: 
G                            D 
When you told me that had to part 
G                          D 
You know you really really broke my heart 
G                      D 
I say a prayer for you everynight 
A                          G    D 
I say a prayer that you?ll be alright 
 
Soldier baby of mine while we are apart 
I hold you?re picture close to my heart 
 
Chorus  
 
D               Em    A               D 
Soldier baby of mine, Soldier baby of mine
