   Am          Dm          Em          G           
|  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  | (B. F. P. O.)
Am       Dm6           Em     G             
Army     ...dreamers!      (A mammy's hero!)
   Am          Dm          Em          G           
|  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  | (B. F. P. O.)
   Am          Dm6         Em      G             
|  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  |       (A mammy's hero!)

[Verse 1]
Am              Dm     Em               G          
Our little army boy is coming home from B. F. P. O.
Am              Dm6              
I've a bunch of purple flowers...
      Em         G           
...to decorate a mammys hero,
Am              Dm        
Mourning in the aerodrome,
    Em              G            
The weather warmer, he is colder,
Am          Dm6        Em            G             
Four men in uniform to carry home my little soldier

[Chorus 1]
 Am                 D                     C     
(What could he do?  Should've been a rock star!)
              Em                   Am        
But he didn't have the money for a gui - tar,
(What could he do?...
   D                       C       
...Should've been a poli - tician!)
             Em                 Am        
But he never had a proper edu - ca - tion,
(What could he do?...
   D                       C   
...Should've been a fath - er!)
             Em                  Am       
But he never even made it to his twenties,
C             F    Am       
What a waste, army dreamers,
F   C               F    Am      FC
Oo, what a waste of army dreamers

[Verse 2]
Am           Dm      
Tears o'er a tin box,
    Em               G              
Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know,
Am             Dm6        
Like a chicken with a fox,
   Em               G            
He couldn't win the war with ego,
Am               Dm           
Give the kid the pick of pips,
    Em                G                   
And give him all your stripes and ribbons,
Am               Dm6         
Now he's sitting in his hole,
   Em                 G               
He might as well have buttons and bows

[Chorus 2]
 Am                 D                     C     
(What could he do?  Should've been a rock star!)
              Em                   Am        
But he didn't have the money for a gui - tar,
(What could he do?...
   D                       C       
...Should've been a poli - tician!)
             Em                 Am        
But he never had a proper edu - ca - tion,
(What could he do?...
   D                       C   
...Should've been a fath - er!)
             Em                  Am       
But he never even made it to his twenties,
C             F    Am       
What a waste, army dreamers,
F   C               F    Am       F
Oo, what a waste of army dreamers,
    C                        F    Am     
Oo, what a waste of all them army dreams,
F    Am       F    Am      F       Asus2   C
Army dreams,  army dream - ers!    Oo-----!
