Soldiers And Jesus

D                          G  D
Grand-daddy came home in a B-52
                         A         
In a pine box covered in red, white
     G
 and blue
He was one of the brave and the 
A             Bm  A D
proud and the few

D                      G   
Twenty-one guns helped us say 
       D
goodbye
                                A  
I stood there in silence tryin' 
         G
hard not to cry
As the preacher, he quoted, lines 
A          Bm A D
written in red
            D                      
And then he folded his bible and in
   A                D
 a broken voice, he said


[Chorus]

        G                     D
There's only two people who's every 
died for me
A                             D
Laid down their lives just so I 
could be free
     G                             
They both went through hell, beared
 D
 crosses and shells
    A                      D
And both got back up again after 
they fell

     G                          
They never picked the fight, but 
         D
they're there
   A           Bm
To pick up the pieces

G                       A        
God only knows who we'd be 
               D
without soldiers and Jesus


[Verse 2]

   D                            G 
It seems like the news loves to 
           D
run 'em both down
But whenever we need 'em, they're 
A      G
always around
                           A       
So don't hand me a party's 
  Bm
political views
                 D                 
'Cause they're a left side, a right
           A                D
 side, and then there's the truth


[Chorus]

     G                     D
There's only two people who's every 
died for me
A                             D
Laid down their lives just so I 
could be free
     G                             
They both went through hell, beared
 D
 crosses and shells
    A                      D
And both got back up again after 
they fell

     G                          
They never picked the fight, but 
         D
they're there
   A           Bm
To pick up the pieces


[Bridge]

   G                               
To me, they're both heroes for the 
A              Bm
path that they chose
           D                       
'Cause one fights for my life, one 
 A             D
fights for my soul


[Chorus]

     G                     D
There's only two people who's every 
died for me
A                             D
Laid down their lives just so I 
could be free
     G                             
They both went through hell, beared
 D
 crosses and shells
    A                      D
And both got back up again after 
they fell

     G                          
They never picked the fight, but 
         D
they're there
   A           Bm
To pick up the pieces

G                         A      
God only knows where we'd be 
                  D
without soldiers and Jesus
 G           D
