_ _ A [C#m] number on his [E] back voted captain of his high school football team. _
[C#m] He took us
all the way to state, [E] got a scholarship to play down in Tennessee.
_ _ _ [F#] Said he could
catch, he could throw, he could run, he could go like [B] he never seen.
_ _ [E] 19. _ _
_ _ _ But [C#m] on the day
those twin [E] towers came down, his whole world turned around.
_ _ [C#m] He told them [E] all, I
can't play ball, there's a war on now. _ _
He marched right in with a few good men [B] and
joined the Marines _ at [E] 19.
_ _ _ _ _ Now he's a boy next door, _ _ [B] they used to carry your bags
[E] at the grocery store.
[A] He's somebody's son [E] in a hole with a gun in [B] a four-round
lane, [G#]
trying to hold [C#m] on to his American _ [E] _
dreams.
_ _ _ 19. _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] There's a sniper out there [E] in
the dark somewhere and a soldier's down. _
_ [F#] [C#m] And we need someone [E] who can duck and run
and get him out somehow.
_ [G#m] _
[E] Won't one good man raise his hand and [B] take one for the
team?
How about you?

[F#] They [C#m] brought him home today [E] with a big
parade down on Main Street.
_ _ He [C#m] got a purple heart and [E] a silver star.
[E] A soldier
gave a speech, _ _ said he could catch, he could throw, he could run, he's the [B] one
that rescued me.
