FCFCGFC/E
watch another sun fall on the desert sand
FC/EG
And slowly I can feel the ache returning to my heart
FC/E
I heard somebody say today we lost a man
GAm
And everybody's got their own opinion
GF/AG/B
On whether it's a good or bad thing we're doing over here
(Chorus)
CG/B
But there's a little girl in Georgia lying in her bed tonight
AmG
While her mother holds her close and whispers, "It's gonna be alright"
F
And they'll pray themselves to sleep
GFC/E
And dream about the day when I'll come walking back through the door
FGC/F
'Cause this is what I'm fighting for

We passed another playground on the road today
a little group of girls looked up and waved at us and smiled
I think it's in their eyes I see the biggest change
Still everybody's got their own opinion
I can see the good and bad but when I close my eyes...
_
I see a little girl in Georgia lying in her bed tonight
While her mother holds her close and whispers, "It's gonna be alright"
And they'll pray themselves to sleep
And dream about the day when I'll come walking back through the door
'Cause this is what I'm fighting for
_
I know everybody's got their own opinion
I'm just here to do my job and I can't wait to get home
To that little girl in Georgia lying in her bed tonight
While her mother holds her close and whispers, "It's gonna be alright"
So I'll pray myself to sleep and dream about the day when I'll go running back through
door
Back to what I'm fighting for
This is what I'm fighting for
