Intro D A D
 
D
When the bodies were bagged and the telegrams sent
G D
And the very last chopper had gone
D G D Bm A
And you looked out the window of the 707 on the airfield in Saigon,
D Bm
Some of us thought that the war was over
G D
Some of us couldn’t care less;
G D G A
But you came home and threw a stay-behind party to try to clear up the mess.
 
G D A D
I don’t know where you are tonight..I’m down here in a firefight…
F#m G A D
But where-ever you are, I hope you’re safe behind the wire.
 
D Bm G D
We were fighting for freedom in South-East Asia…. That’s how the story ran;
G D Bm A
Windy speeches about a domino falling from China into Vietnam…
D Bm G D
But look back in sickness and anger, Australia didn’t honour her debt;
G D G A
And non-commission Officer Thompson learned that the war wasn’t over yet.
 
G D A D
Living on your nerves, living on the phone and sleeping in airports far from home….
F#m G A D
Dusted off now and safe behind the wire.
 
Instrumental: A G D A G
 
D Bm G D
Well he have and he gave and he kept on giving, till he just couldn’t give anymore;
G D Bm A
And he gave it away one morning in Sydney in a rust-red Commodore…
 
D Bm G D
And I remember Phill best talking on the phone, with a cheeky grin on his face….
G D
Because Royal Commissioners and Knights of the Realm
G A
Thought that Phill didn’t know his place.
 
G D A D
I don’t know where you are tonight..I’m down here in a firefight…
F#m G A D
But where-ever you are, I hope you’re safe behind the wire.

And the’re still bagging bodies, Phill, though fourteen years have gone;
A G A
And the mums and the dads and the wives and the kids still have to soldier on.

I don’t know where you are tonight..I’m down here in a firefight…

But where-ever you are, I hope you’re safe behind the wire.

I don’t know where you are tonight..I’m down here in a firefight…
