Far Afghanistan by James Taylor Guitar Chords


INTRO (lower case: individual notes, not chords)
f#-a – B5
d-e-a – B5

Back home[A/C#] Indiana, we just learn to get along
Civilized and socialized they teach you right from wrong
How to hold your liquor and how to hold your tongue
How to h[A/C#]old a woman or a baby or a gun

But nothing [A/C#]will prepare you for the far Afghanistan
You can listen to their stories and pick up what you can
You listen to their stories maybe read a book or two
Until they send[A/C#] you out there, man you haven’t got a clue

Oh the Hindu Kush, the Band-e Amir, the Hazara

They tell you [A/C#]a tradition in the hills of Kandahar[E/B]
They say young boys are taken to the wilderness out there
Taken to the mountain alone and in the night
If he [A/C#]makes it home alive they teach him how to fight

They fought again[A/C#]st the Russians, they fought against the Brits
Hell, they fought old Alexander, talking ‘bout him ever since
And after 9/11 here comes your Uncle Sam
Another p[A/C#]ainful lesson in the far Afghanistan


[E/B]
I was ready [A/C#]to be terrified and ready to be mad
I was ready to be homesick, the worst I’ve ever had
I expected to be hated and insulted to my face
But nothing[A/C#] could prepare me for the beauty of the place

No matter what [A/C#]they tell you, all soldiers talk to God
It’s a private conversation written in your blood
The enemy’s no different, bad-ass holy wind
That crazy bas[A/C#]tard talks to God and his God talks back to him

[E/G#]
(solo)
