The Weaker Soldier chords by
Alexis Taylor
Alexis Taylor

N/A
Verse 1
D

I once was a weaker soldier

hanging in the war
G

But I left like an ape folded neatly in four
D

And silently played for

a moment slow and blared
G

On a sandalwood bust I had
D

Where was the field

where I had pressed another down
G

I had revealed myself by crying and shouting
D

I turned away from that and into this
G
Em
A

Black kettle of warm milk
D
G

I have not been feeling the same
A
D

I am not fit, not fit to carry your name

I am not fit,
G
Em
A

and I am not willing to go on
D

Sold down the lane in a way to restrain
G

You from calling her name

and then regretting
D

If you say what you own,

you are always alone
G

Then why postpone the good deal?
D

We are those who break laws

when the cold body thaws
G

Who prefer breaking jaws

but must lower ourselves
D

Unfit though we are to

help you get very far
G

Still we would never mar
Em
A

your rightful due
D
G

I have not been feeling the same.
A
D

I am not fit to carry your name.
G
Em
A

I am not fit and I am not willing to go on.
D

It was noon before she moved

into the yards
G

and pressed her hair with a hand

yellowed smooth and shaking
D

She had pulled on a house dress

over nothing but her skin
G

And stood in the cross looking about her
D

Your breath in here

and you've breathed of me
G

My girl here, she loves you,

she'll take you upstairs
D

Call on me later, much later in life
G

But do me a favor and
Em
A

leave her up there
D
G

I have not been feeling the same.
A
D

I am not willing to carry your name.

I am not here and I am not
G
Em
A

going to be there.

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
