(G) Ah, but (D)you don't have a (A)clue
(Verse 2)
(G) I (D)flew Korea (A)in the war you probably forgot
(G) I gave (D)40 years of (A)damn near all I got
(G) I (D)watched some of my closest (A)friends die on foreign land
(G) I still (D)hear their screams at (A)night
(Chorus)
(G) So, (A)don't you wipe a-(D)way my tears
(G) I've (A)earned them through (D)all the years

(G) I (D)met Jean Ann in a (A) photograph in '44
(G) Yeah, I (D)swore she'd be the (A)girl to take my last name
(G) Fifty (D)two years passed (A) 'til the Lord took her away

(Verse 4)
(G) At the (D)end of my rope as I (A) lay here in this bed
(G) Thoughts and (D)prayers of my fami-(A)ly circle through my head
(G) I (D)pray when the Lord (A)opens up the pearly gates wide
(G) I'll see (D)my Jean (A)standin' there in the light
(Chorus)
(G) So, (A)don't you wipe a-(D)way my tears
(G) Hey, I've (A)earned them through (D)all the years
