D                        G       
I saw her from a distance as she 
                 D
walked up to the wall
D                                 
In her hand she held some flowers,
G                      A
 as her tears began to fall
    D                      G   
She took out pen and paper as to 
                D
trace her mem'ries
         Bm                  G

She said, "Lord my boy was special,
                         D
 and he meant so much to me
    G                              
And Oh, I'd love to see him just 
                A
one more time you see
      G                            
All I have are the mem'ries and the
              D      D/C#  Bm
 moments to recall
   G                            A 
So Lord could you tell him he's 
                      D
more than a name on the wall"

She said, "He really missed the 
family, being home on Christmas day
And he died for God and country in a
 place so far away
I remember just a little boy, 
playing war since he was three
And Lord this time I know, he's not 
coming home to me"


Chorus 2:
She said, "Lord my boy was special, 
and he meant so much to me
And Oh, I'd love to see him but I 
know it just can't be
So I thank you for my mem'ries and 
the moments to recall
But Lord could you tell him he's 
more than a name on the wall"

Lord could you tell him he's more 
than a name on the wall
