[Verse]

Asus2
  Charlie was just a boy,
Em                G
  laid back in an open field and
Asus2
  followed those distant wings
Em          G
  around in lazy circles

[Pre-Chorus]

F
"When are they gonna come down?" he said,
G
  "Or are they watching over
F
me here on the ground instead?
G
  Or maybe they just fly forever?"

[Chorus]

    C
You dont forget about heroes
Em         D
You simply shake their hands
         Bm
Then you watch them wave goodbye
    C
One night there's a new star
Em    D
up in Charlie's sky.

[Verse]

Asus2
First raid on the jungle night
Em                 G
Flying low  in the radio silence
Asus2
One eye on the gunners sight
Em             G
One eye on the waiting target

[Pre-Chorus]

F
It's not a matter of wrong or right
G
You asked no questions, 'cause you found no answers
F
God knows  when you have to fight
G
You say a prayer  and you take your chances

[Chorus]

C
  You dont forget about heroes
Em           D
  You simply shake their hands
         Bm
Then you watch them wave goodbye
C
  One night there's a new star
Em    D
up in Charlie's sky.

[Chorus]

C
  You don't forget about heroes
Em         D
  like any big wild bird
            Bm
You have to let them fly away
C
  Pray that no one can reach them
Em    D
up in Charlie's sky

[Instrumental]

[Verse]

Asus2
Somewhere   deep in the mountains
Em                    G
Somewhere wide of the landing lights
Asus2
    gonna missing in action
    Em                 G
but I know  he made it home

[Solo]

     F         G        F        G
Home alright!

[Chorus]

C
  You dont forget about heroes
Em           D
  You simply shake their hands
         Bm
Then you watch them wave goodbye
C
  One night there's a new star
Em    D
up in Charlie's sky.

[Chorus]

C
  You don't forget about heroes
Em         D
  like any big wild bird
            Bm
You have to let them fly away
C
  Pray that no one can reach them
Em    D
Up in Charlie's sky

[Chorus]

C
  You dont forget about heroes
Em           D
  You simply shake their hands
         Bm
Then you watch them wave goodbye
C
  One night there's a new star
Em    D
up in Charlie's sky.

[Chorus]

C
  You don't forget about heroes
Em         D
  like any big wild bird
            Bm
You have to let them fly away
C
  Pray that no one can reach them
Em    D
Up in Charlie's sky
