C F

Robert was a sailor, For the best years of his life

F C G

His captain was his mother, And the ocean was his wife

C F

Only fresh out of the cradle, Lifes one and only spring

C G C

He was sworn to do his duty, And got blood on his highschool ring

C

And its hello california

F

Hello dad and mom

C

Ship ahoy Your baby boy

G

Is home from vietnam

C

Dont you ask me any questions

F

bout the medals on my chest

C

Take the star out of the window

G C

And let my conscience take a rest

C

Now he sailed across the ocean

F

To the old far eastern war

C

And it was foreign to his body

G

It was foreign to his shore

C

So he traded in the present

F

For the better times hed seen

C

And made an oriental waitress

G C

His own home comin queen
