Stop When You See A Uniform

B, F#, B, E

[Verse 1]

B                                        F#
Stop right there when you see those boots
          G#m                                     E
And a uniform coming your way
B                                                   F#
Get off the cell phone, your fancy ipad
                    G#m   B            E
And drop that old briefcase
B                                       F#
If you want to see what a hero looks like
G#m                              E
This might be your chance
                       B
Before you go back home
                    F#
to your safe little worlds
                 G#m                   E
Y'all don't you understand


[Chorus]

                              B
These are the men and women
       F#                    B                                  E
that keep us living safe inside our homes
                          B                        F#
and if you took one minute your head would be spinning
    G#m                                          E
to see the things that they know
       B                                    F#
just stop what you're doing, walk up to him
G#m                                     E
and tell him how much it means
        C#m                                    B              E
that every night when you drift off to sleep
                                  C#m                       B          E
they're all across the planet making sure you're free
    F#                              B                     F#   B   G#m   B   E
so stop when you see a uniform


[Verse 2]

B                                            F#
Don't ya know who you just walked past

                 B                                E
With your headphones in today
        B                                        F#
You're all concerned with your own little life
            B                               E
Just outside the terminal gate
                     B                                   F#
They're coming home from a whole nother world
              G#m                         E
That we know nothing about
           B                                                       F#
So the least we can give them's a standing ovation
      G#m                           E
It's time they hear us shout


[Second Chorus]

                                     B
Cause these are the men and women
       F#                   B                       E
that keep us living safe inside our homes
                 B                                  F#
and if you took one minute your head would be spinning
                B                             E
to see the things that they know
           B                               F#
just stop what you're doing, walk up to him
B                                       E
and tell him how much it means
       C#m                      G#m                         E
that every night when you drift off to sleep
                 C#m                           G#m         E
they've got it covered, protecting you and me
F#                                  B
so stop when you see a uniform
