Crazy Old Soldier Chords

  			C 
I've had fame and fortune,  
                       F 
Women come knock on my door. 
     G 
I've lived to the limit,  
                       C 
And maybe a little bit more. 
 
There are so many stories,  
                       F 
Of how I got out of control. 
     G 
Some say it's a women,  
                          C 
Some say it's my troubled soul. 
 
 
           F 
I'm like a crazy old soldier, 
                    C 
Fightin a war on my own. 
     G 
Just me and the whiskey, 
                                 C 
And the bottles are ten-thousand strong. 
F 
You'd think I'd give up, 
                           C 
As many times as I've been hit. 
           G 
But like a crazy old soldier, 
                          C 
I just don't know when to quit. 
 
 
C 
Barrooms and bedrooms,  
                              F 
are just faces and places and names. 
G 
One's for the pleasure, 
                              C 
And lord knows what's for the pain. 
 
I've tried to forget her, 
                                 F 
And all of the things that we've done. 
       G 
But as long as there's memories, 
                      C 
I'll never hang up my gun. 
 
Sing Chorus 
       G 
Like a crazy old soldier, 
                          C 
I just don't know when to quit.
