[F#] If your reading this, and my mama sitting there
[G#] Looks like I only got [E] one way to get over here
[F#] I sure wish I'd give you one more kiss
[G#] That war was just a game we played [E] when we were kids
Well [C#m] I'm laying down my gun, [B] I'm hanging up my boots
[E] I'm up here with God and we're [F#] both watching over you
[E] So lay [G#m] me down in [E] that open field out [F#] on the edge of town
[E] And know my [G#m] soul, [E] I swear my mama always prayed [F#] that it would go
If [E] your reading this, I'm [B] already home
[E] If [B] your reading this, halfway [F#] around the world
I [G#] won't be there to see the birth [E] of our little girl
I [B] hope she looks like you, [F#] I hope she fights like me
And [G#m] stands up for the innocent [E] and the weak
[C#m] I'm laying down my gun, [B] I'm hanging up my boots
[E] Tell dad I don't regret that I [F#] followed in his shoes
[E] So lay me [G#m] down [E] in that open field [F#] out on the edge of town
[E] And know [F#] my [G#m] soul, [E] I swear my mama always prayed that [F#] it would go
If [E] your reading [F#] this, I'm already [G#m] home
If [B]
[F#] your reading this, there's gonna come a day
[G#] You'll move on and find someone [E] else and that's okay
[B] Just remember this, I'm in [F#] a better place
Where [G#m] soldiers live in peace and [E] angels sing amazing grace
So lay [G#m] me down in [E] that open field out [F#] on the edge of town
