David Crosby Old Soldier written by Marc Cohn
guitar John Leventhal piano Marc Cohn bass Leland Sklar harmonica & Graham Nash harmony
Listen old soldier where ever you are Hills of the valley's come near or come far You say youth is a treasure we waste when we're young So come down from the place where your medals are hung Your forever returning and learning to fight And you feel just like an old soldier tonight Listen old soldier cause time doesn't wait Moon's on your shoulder the hour is late Something there inside still calls out to you And you won't fade away whatever you do Your forever beginning barely winning the fight 7 You feel just like an old soldier tonight Your not getting any younger that much is true But your still got that hunger burning in you
So what'll you do now
Harmonica
So what'll you do now
Listen old soldier to the sound in your ear Of too many battles for too many years There's only one thing you've learned in defeat Is that losing is bitter and victor is sweet Your always unraveling and traveling lite And you feel like an old soldier tonight 7 And you feel like an old soldier tonight
