Verse 1 
 D 
When the war was over 
   G  D 
In 1954 
The government said sorry 
       A            D  
We've lost so many lives 
 
Verse 2 
 D  
He raised a little family 
       G            D  
In a small country town 
He tried to make a living 
 A            D  
Just like any man 
 
Verse 3 
He woke up sunday morning 
When the rain was falling down 
The old man said i'm sorry 
Your war has just begun 
 
Chorus 
     G  
His wife has gone and left him 
        D  
And now he's on his own 
        G 
She's taken away his children 
       D  
Not knowing where they've gone 
                 A  D 
That was back in 1954 
 
     G   
His wife has tried to help him 
     D       
And now that she's gone 
        G 
She's taken away his children 
       D 
Not knowing where they've gone 
                 A  D  
That was back in 1954 
 
Lead Break 
 
Verse 4 
He woke up Sunday morning 
With the bottle in his hand 
An old man said "i'm sorry" 
"Your war has just begun" 
 
Chorus 
His wife has gone and left him 
And now he's on his own 
She's taken away his children 
Not knowing where they've gone 
That was back in 1954 
 
His wife has tried to help him 
And now that she's gone 
She's taken away his children 
Not knowing where they've gone 
That was back in 1954 
That was back in 1954
