Verse 2
Em7 D The patch that he wore on Cadd9 G His uniform G D G Was both blue and grey Em7 D The colors of men who died Cadd9 G Fighting another fight G D G And more would die today D At Omaha beach against Germany Cadd9 G A young country boy C G Struggled out of the sea Em7 D Up on the sand where Cadd9 G Many a man G D G Would never know victory

Verse 3
Em7 D Fought the entire time Cadd9 G Up on the front line G D G It was lonely, bloody and cold Em7 D The only relief he'd find C G Might be some old French wine G D G The water was all dirty and froze D But he was luckier than some, a better soldier than most Cadd9 G He came back from Europe C G But never got home Em7 D Now he's back on the farm Cadd9 G But not out of harm G D G He drank so the pain wouldn't show

Verse 4
Em7 D Well he left behind Cadd9 G My brothers and I G D G We never really knew him at all Em7 D I barely remember him Cadd9 G Smoking with a grin G D G But looking mean; standing tall D Well I can only hope that he wouldn't be ashamed C G Of the man I become C G And the life that I made Em7 D And he did the hardest part C G And lived life with all his heart G D G And I hope I don't let him down
