C Fmaj7
        Once I was a soldier
C Fmaj7
        And I fought on foreign sands for you
C Fmaj7
        Once I was a hunter
C Fmaj7
        And I brought home fresh meat for you
C Fmaj7
        Once I was a lover
C Fmaj7
        And I searched behind your eyes for you
C Fmaj7
        And soon there'll be     another
C Fmaj7
        To tell you I was just a lie

Am F
And sometimes I wonder
G
Just for a while
Am Gsus G
Will you ever - remember me  /++++

C Fmaj7
        And though you have forgotten
C Fmaj7
        All of our rubbish dreams
C Fmaj7
        I find myself searching
C Fmaj7
        Through the ashes of our ruins
C Fmaj7
        For the days when we smiled
C Fmaj7
        And the hours that ran wild
C Fmaj7
        With the magic of our eyes
C Fmaj7
        And the silence of our words

Am F
And sometimes I wonder
G
Just for a while
Am Gsus G Am
Will you ever - remember me
G Am C
Ever remember me
