      G                      C       G
We're tenting tonight on the old campground
D7                G
Give us a song to cheer
D7  G               C       G
Our weary hearts, a song of home
    D7                 G
And friends we love so dear

[Chorus]
G                            C
Many are the hearts that are weary tonight
G                      D7
Wishing for the war to cease

Many are the hearts that are looking for the right

Thinking of days gone by

Of the loved ones at home that gave us the hand
        D7                 G
And the tear that said goodbye

We've been fighting tonight on the old campground

Of the brave and the true who have left their home

Others been wounded long
