If you're reading this and my mama's
 sitting there
      Bm                       
Looks like I only got a one-way 
 G
ticket over here
D                          A
Sure wish I could give you one more 
kiss
Bm                                 
War was just a game we played when 
G
we were kids
          Em7                  
Well I'm laying down my gun I'm 
  Bm7
hanging up my boots
G                                 
I'm up here with God and we're 
  A
both watching over you…

So lay me down in that open field 
out on the edge of town
    G    A  Bm      G           
And know my soul is where my 
                     A
mama always prayed that it would go

I won't be there to see the birth 
     G
of our little girl
           D                       
I hope she looks like you I hope

she fights like me

And stands up for the innocent and 
the weak

When you'll move on and find

someone else and that's okay
       D                    A
Just remember this I'm in a better 
place

Where soldiers live in peace and 
        G            A
angels sing amazing grace…
