Jason Isbell - Soldiers Get Strange Intro: ) I play it starting on 7th fret, drop the string once, like this: e--7--7--7--3----5-- B--8--7--8--5----7-- G--9--9--9--5----7-- D--9--9--9--5----7-- A--7--7--7--3----5-- E--x--x--x--x----x-- Rest of the song I play normally, i.e. Em is 022000 You want her to try new things. She reminds you she wears your ring. And after a couple o’ drinks, she's a little scared of you. A good friend is hard to find. You wish you could spend more time towing civilian lines, but they're all scared of you. It's not the time that makes it go bad It's not the thought of what you could've had It's not the way that her figure has changed (hold) It's just that a soldier gets strange You know she's a real good girl. She reminds you that every curl that whips in the wind of the world, is watched by the eyes of God. But lately your mane's gone white. You itch in your veins in the night. Before you "came home alright" you wielded the lightning rod. It ain't the time that makes it go South It ain't the liquor that burns in your mouth Nearly nothing around here's changed It's just that a soldier gets strange She turns off the lights so you can't see her body You can't make her fight when you know that you're wrong They call you a hero, so many still fighting (hold) This ain't where you belong Instrumental:
