        Dm
Well he was in  Thailand based. She 
was an airforce wife.
        F
He used to fly weekends, it was the 
easy life.
        C
But then it turned around, and he 
began to change.
        Gm                         
She didn't wonder then, she didn't 
  C
think it strange.
        Dm
But then he got a call, he had to 
leave that night.
        F
He couldn't say too much, but it 
would be alright.
        C
He didn't need to pack, they'd meet 
the next night.
        Gm              C   
He had a job to do, flying to 
         Dm      F       Gm      
Cambodia.
C       Dm


        Dm
And as the nights passed by, she 
tried to trace the past.

        F
The way he used to look, the way he 
used to laugh.
        C
I guess she'll never know, what got 
inside his soul.
        Gm                  C
She couldn't make it out, just 
couldn't take it all.
        Dm
He had the saddest eyes the girl had
 ever seen.
        F
He used to cry some nights, as 
though he lived a dream.
        C
And as she held him close, he used 
to search her face.
        Gm                       C
As though she knew the truth, lost
               Dm      F       Gm
 inside Cambodia.
      C       Dm


        Dm
But then a call came through, they 
said he'd soon be home.
        F           Bb        
She had to pack a case and they 
         Gm
would make a rendez-vous.
        Dm
But now the year has passed and not 
a single word and
        F          Bb   
all the love she knew has 
           Gm
disappeared out in the haze.
        Dm      Bb         Gm
Cambodia - Don't cry now - No tears 
now.

Dm F Bb Dm Gm

        Dm
And now the years have passed 
without a single word.
               F             Bb
But there is only one thing left I 
know for sure,
        C                Dm
She won't see his face again.
