[Verse 1]
G Am D/F# Em
She's a war surplus baby from Salvation's Army
Am Em Am Em
She plays tambourine and wants to be a star
G Am
She stepped out of the Sixties
D/F# Em
From a dream world to fix these
Am Em Am Em
Broken promises I play on my guitar

[Chorus]
D/F# G
And we made it through somehow
C G
For the bad and good
C G
She always knew we would, you see
BbMaj7 Am7 D7
She believes

[Verse 2]
G Am
in miracles and romance,
D/F# Em
In learning how to slow dance
Am Em Am Em
In sacrifice, in freedom, and in pain
G Am
Yes, she believes in magic
D/F# Em
And she tells me the tragic side of
Am Em Am F#m7 B7sus4 B7
something beautiful that never ends in vain

[Bridge]
Em Em/D
Barefoot in sadness
Em/D
Bell bottom eyes
F#m7 B7sus4 B7
We did what need to be done
Em
So we marched all the marches
Em/D
Ended all the wars
F#m7 B7sus4 B7
All the time believing that we won

[Verse 3]
G Am
Don't the times keep on changing
D/F# Em
The stakes get much higher
Am Am Em
It's out of the frying pan into the fire

[Chorus]
D/F# G
And we made it through somehow
C G
For the bad and good
C G
She always knew we would
Bbmaj7 F/A Abmaj7 Gm7
She still believes

[Verse 4]
F Gm
In love in the morning
C/E Dm
And love when you need it
Gm7 Dm Gm Dm
If your soul gets hungry you've got to feed it

F Gm
She's a war surplus treasure
C/E Dm
Her peace is her pleasure
Gm7 Am7
In spite of all this madness
C11 F Bb/F F
Life Goes On
