I saw her from a distance [A] as she walked up [E] to the wall
In her hand she held some flowers [A] as her tears [B] began to fall
[E] She took out a pen and paper [A] as to trace her [E] memories
[F#m] She looked up to heaven [B] and the words she [E] said were these
She [A] said, Lord, my boy was special and he meant so [E] much to me
[A] And though I'd love to see him just one more [B] time you see
Oh, [A] I have other memories and the moments to [E] recall
[D#m]
[C#m] [A] So Lord, could you tell him [B] he's more than a name, all [E] in all
She said he really missed the family [A] and being home on [E] Christmas Day
And he died for God and country [A] in a place so [B] far away
I [E] remember just a little boy [A] playing war since [E] he was three
[F#m] Lord, this time I know [B] he's not coming [E] home to me
She [A] said, Lord, my boy was special and he meant so much [E] to me
[A] And though I'd love to see him, but I know it just [B] can't be
So [A] I thank you for my memories and the moments to [E] recall
