Soldiers And Jesus

D                          G  D
Grand-daddy came home in a B-52
                         A              G
In a pine box covered in red, white and blue
                                A             Bm  A D
He was one of the brave and the proud and the few
D                      G          D
Twenty-one guns helped us say goodbye
                                A           G
I stood there in silence tryin' hard not to cry
                                  A          Bm A D
As the preacher, he quoted, lines written in red
            D                         A                D
And then he folded his bible and in a broken voice, he said

        G                     D
There's only two people who's every died for me
A                             D
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
     G                              D
They both went through hell, beared crosses and shells
    A                      D
And both got back up again after they fell
     G                                   D
They never picked the fight, but they're there
   A           Bm
To pick up the pieces
G                       A                       D
God only knows who we'd be without soldiers and Jesus

   D                            G            D
It seems like the news loves to run 'em both down
                                  A      G
But whenever we need 'em, they're always around
                           A         Bm
So don't hand me a party's political views
                 D                            A                D
'Cause they're a left side, a right side, and then there's the truth

     G                     D
There's only two people who's every died for me
A                             D
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
     G                              D
They both went through hell, beared crosses and shells
    A                      D
And both got back up again after they fell
     G                                   D
They never picked the fight, but they're there
   A           Bm
To pick up the pieces

   G                               A              Bm
To me, they're both heroes for the path that they chose
           D                        A             D
'Cause one fights for my life, one fights for my soul

     G                     D
There's only two people who's every died for me
A                             D
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
     G                              D
They both went through hell, beared crosses and shells
    A                      D
And both got back up again after they fell
     G                                   D
They never picked the fight, but they're there
   A           Bm
To pick up the pieces

G                         A                        D
God only knows where we'd be without soldiers and Jesus
 G           D
