Thanks for the input OD. BUT, there is no chorus. It is a V, V, B, V format. This format is also not so popular in todays market. This song was never written to be on today's current chart country anyway. You will notice the hook, "Old Soldier", is used at least once in every verse, but not in the bridge. This is also the normal way to write this format. HOWEVER, in this format, the hook is USUALLY in the first and/or the last line of each verse. Actually, this isn't even a "country" song. It is more a folk story kind of song. And here is an interesting thing. If you google the late great Guy Clark, you will hear several of these kinds of story songs he wrote. None of them (the ones I listened to anyway) were ever big radio hits though. But they are just great, "pull you right into the story", kinds of songs.
