[B]
[E] [F#] If [B] your reading is, and [F#] my mama's sitting there
[G#m] Looks like I only got a one [E] way ticket over here
I [B]
sure wish I'd [F#] give you one more kiss
That war was just a [G#m] game we [E] played 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
So [E] lay
[F#] me [G#m]
down in [E] that open field out on the [F#] edge of town
[E] And know
[F#] my [G#m]
soul, [E] is where my mama always [F#] prayed that it would go
If [E] your reading is, [F#] I'm already [B] home
If [E]
[F#] [B] your reading is, [F#] halfway around the world
I [C#m] won't be [G#m] there to see the birth [E] of our little girl
I hope [B] she looks like you, I hope she [F#] fights like me
[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]
[F#] So lay me [G#m] down in [E] that open field out [F#] on the edge of town
[E] And [F#] know my [G#m] soul, [E] is where my mama always prayed [F#] that it would go
If your [E] reading is,
[F#] I'm already [G#m] home
[F#] [B]
[F#]
If your reading [B] is, [F#] there's gonna come a day
You'll [G#m] [F#] move on and find [G#m] someone else [E] and that's okay
Just [B] remember this, I'm in [F#] a better place
Where [G#m] soldiers live in peace and angels [E] sing amazing [F#] grace
[E] So lay
[F#] me [G#m] down in [E] that open field out on [F#] the edge of town
[E] And know
[F#] my [G#m] soul, [E] is where my mama always prayed [F#] that it would go
If [E] your reading is, if [F#] your reading is, I'm already [B] home
