Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  got to go back to the world
Back  to my girl
Back  to my family and kids
Have  to go and see my home again
Don't  want my life to end
Before  my time is due
 (pre verse)
 X2
 (verse)
Just got  the postal  package  from my  wife and kids
It  brings  me comfort  while  I'm stuck in this  desert mess
 But don't  get me wrong, perform  my  mission
 Just sounding  off on  my homesick condition
Got  to get  out, a short  timer, my heart  it begs  for home
 (chous)
I  got to go back to the world
Back  to my girl
Back  to my family and kids
Have  to go and see my home again
Don't  want my life to end
Before  my time is due
 (verse, same as first one)
 Seen many a firefight since we deployed out here
 Learned how to survive with my friends
 They're focus, adrenaline and fear
 But the odds haunt me, hope I don't get hit
 Be that body with a flag adorned to it
 I'm gonna make it, the short timer, hellbent on going home
 (chorus)
 I got to go back to the world
 Back to my girl
 Back to my family and kids
 Have to go and see my home again
 Don't want my life to end
 Before my time is due
 (Bridge)
I'm  not a policy maker
Just  a sworn-in order taker
Doing  my best to stay alive
I'm  gonna make it
To  conus real soon
Hope  some days still lie ahead for  me
 X2
 (chorus)
 I got to go back to the world
 Back to my girl
 Back to my family and kids
 Have to go and see my home again
 Don't want my life to end
 Before my time is due
 (outro)
 I've gotta go back
 Too short to turn back
 Gotta go back
 Back to the world  again
