[Intro]
G A D
[Verse 1]
D G D
I was waiting for a ship to Vietnam
A
And me being the good time loving guy I am
D G D
I was looking for some female company
G D A D
I met a girl alone and lonesome just like me
[Verse 2]
G D
We had coffee at a waterfront cafe
A
She said her husband was a soldier far away
D G D
And she talked about her long nights all alone
G D A D
And the way she's fought temptation since he's gone
[Chorus]
G D
1460 Elder Street is where she took me
G D A
And I never knew that love could be so sweet
D G D
Then she promised me that when the war was over
G A D
I'd have a home at 1460 Elder Street
[Solo]
| G A | D
[Verse 3]
G D
Two months later I was on patrol one day
A
When a hand grenade fell not ten feet away
D G D
I watched as one brave man gave all that he could give
G D A D
He fell across it gave his life that I might live
[Verse 4]
G D
I found a crumpled tear stained letter in his coat
A
And I read the Dear John Letter his wife wrote
D G D
He had nothing left for livin' for I guess
G D A D
I thought I die when I saw her return address
[Chorus]
G D
1460 Elder Street still drives me crazy
G D A
And sometimes at night we find it hard to sleep
D G D
Could it be the ones who killed him now are sharing
G A D
Our private hell at 1460 Elder Street
