Chords with lyrics
E MajorE
I saw her from a distance
A augmentedA E MajorE
As she walked up to the wall
E MajorE
In her hand she held some flowers
A augmentedA B9B9
As her tears began to fall
E MajorE
She took out pen and paper
A augmentedA E MajorE
As to trace her memories
F#m7F#m7
She looked up to Heaven
BB E MajorE
And the words she said were these
F#m7F#m7 G# minorG#m A augmentedA
She said "Lord my boy was special
A augmentedA E MajorE
And he meant so much to me"
A augmentedA
And oh I'd love to see him
BB
Just one more time You see
A augmentedA
All I have are the memories
E MajorE G#m/D# C# minorC#m
And the moments to recall
A augmentedA
So Lord could You tell him
A/BA/B BB E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
He's more than a name on a wall
E MajorE
She said "He really missed the family
A augmentedA E MajorE
And being home on Christmas day"
E MajorE
And he died for God and country
A augmentedA B9B9
In a place so far away
E MajorE
I remember just a little boy
A augmentedA E MajorE
Playing war since he was three
F#m7F#m7
But Lord this time I know
BB E MajorE
He's not coming home to me
F#m7F#m7 G# minorG#m A augmentedA
She said "Lord my boy was special
A augmentedA E MajorE
And he meant so much to me"
A augmentedA
And oh I'd love to see him
A augmentedA BB
But I know it just can't be
A augmentedA
So I thank You for my memories
A augmentedA E MajorE G#m/D# C# minorC#m
And the moments to recall
A augmentedA
But Lord could You tell him
A/BA/B E MajorE G#m/D# C# minorC#m
He's more than a name on a wall
A augmentedA
Lord could You tell him
A/BA/B BB E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
