🎸 Intro: 

B  B  C  Gm


🎸 Verse:
 B                     B
Well, she sits at the edge of her bed
 C                                   Gm
Sorting through the thoughts running in her head
 B                 B
Staring over at a black dress
              C           Gm
She's got to wear to the service

 B                        B
She's been praying every day and night
           C                    Gm
Since the letter came home and still she cries
 B            B
Looks to God asking why
 C                    Gm
She's the one that's hurting

B                  C
He did what he was supposed to do
 B                  Gm
Stood there tried, proud, and true
 B                        C               Gm
Pledged his life for the red, white, and blue


🎸 Chorus: 
 B                           C/Cm
Now they're standing in the pouring rain
 B
Preacher said "another good man died today
 B            C/Cm       B
Let's bow our heads and pray"

 B                         C/Cm
They fold the flag as the angels cry
    B
We love you soldier and we hate to say goodbye
 B                      C/Cm               B
Nothing sadder than the song that's being sung

Mmmm mm mm

   B   C  Gm7
21 gu-uns


🎸 Verse:
  B              B
Every year they hold a parade
         C                       Gm
In this little town where their hero lays
 B            B
Signs hanging up and down main
         C               Gm
Reading gone but not forgotten

B                  B
He was a husband, father, and son
          C
Give the shirt off his back
             Gm
A friend to everyone
 B          B
Gun powder fills the air
        C                   Gm
As the thunder screams his name


🎸 Chorus: 
 B                           C/Cm
Now they're standing in the pouring rain
 B
Preacher said "another good man died today
 B            C/Cm       B
Let's bow our heads and pray"

 B                         C/Cm
They fold the flag as the angels cry
    B
We love you soldier and we hate to say goodbye
 B                      C/Cm               B
Nothing sadder than the song that's being sung

Bm       B

🎸 Break:
 B                      C
There's a cross on the stone
           B                     Gm          C
Where the name's carved out that God called home
          B
And it's clear to me

                     C
They're more than a memory


🎸 Chorus: 
 B                           C/Cm
