G          D
Got a song in my head
      Em              Bm
I can taste the color red
   C                G
oh babe you've been gone
      F            G
it is warm here in Saigon

       G
oh you brothers
         D
tell the sisters
        Em
and the mothers
             Bm
and our dead fathers
          C          G
though in war we are lovers
   F                    G
we kill for our dead... fathers

      G                D
it is wrong what they do here
      Em                   Bm
so we change the colour to blue
           C             G
shed their blood red and warm
D         Em
summer in Saigon
Bm     C
oh, my god
          D
won't you please

        [Chorus]

[Verse]

     G            D
many cried in the west
        Em                        Bm
for the brothers left back in the east
   C        D  C           G       D
oh darling, please take me home
   G         D
in arms of a man
          Em             Bm
I miss my wife, she understands
    C     D
I'm dying lonesome

        [Chorus]

        sayonara, Saigon
