Looks like I only got a one-way ticket over here

War was just a game we played when we were kids

Well I'm laying down my gun I'm hanging up my boots
G A
I'm up here with God and we're both watching over you…
So lay me down in that open field out on the edge of town
G A Bm G A
And know my soul is where my mama always prayed that it would go
G
If you're reading this
D A
If you're reading this half way round the world
Bm G
I won't be there to see the birth of our little girl
D A
I hope she looks like you I hope she fights like me
Bm G
And stands up for the innocent and the weak

Tell dad I don't regret that I followed in his shoes…

If you're reading this there's gonna come a day
Bm G
When you'll move on and find someone else and that's okay

Just remember this I'm in a better place
Bm G A
Where soldiers live in peace and angels sing amazing grace…
repeat Chorus
G
