WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Bouncing Souls - Letter From Iraq Chords | Ver. 1
So I decided that this song would sound cool on acoustic.
And this is how I play it. You can find a good intro on the other tabs
but none of them showed any of the rest of the song. This sounds good
to me, either with D and E as bar chords or open chords, watever u prefer. Great song
no matter what, hopefully these chords can get u started.
Standard Tuning.

There's celebratory fire
And a purple thumb vote.
Tom cruise is on a sortie
Smart bombs are a coming,
See the children running.
The dead are all laughing,
But we don't get the joke.
They lost another friend today.
It's getting rough over there.
They say the whole things f**ked.
I wish the boys were back.
At least I know they're still alive.
Another letter from Iraq.
Presents full of Christmas loot.
All that's left of Bullet Billy-
is a pair of bloody boots.
His mom is on the phone,
His girl is all alone.
We all stand in the rain
for a twenty-one gun salute.
