Everytime he plays Bm he does a pickoff and hammeron on the 5th string 3rd fret
then hits A then D both one strum.
[Verse 1]
Grand-daddy came home in a B-52
In a pine box covered in red, white and blue
He was one of the brave and the proud and the few
Twenty-one guns helped us say goodbye
I stood there in silence tryin hard not to cry
As the preacher, he quoted, lines written in red
And then he folded his bible and in a broken voice, he said
[Chorus]
There s only two people who s every died for me
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
They both went through hell, beared crosses and shells
And both got back up again after they fell
They never picked the fight, but they re there
To pick up the pieces
God only knows who we d be without soldiers and Jesus
[Verse 2]
It seems like the news loves to run em both down
But whenever we need em, they re always around
So don t hand me a party s political views
Cause they re a left side, a right side, and then there s the truth
[Chorus]
There s only two people who s every died for me
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
They both went through hell, beared crosses and shells
And both got back up again after they fell
They never picked the fight, but they re there
To pick up the pieces
[Bridge]
To me, they re both heroes for the path that they chose
Cause one fights for my life, one fights for my soul
[Chorus]
There s only two people who s every died for me
Laid down their lives just so I could be free
They both went through hell, beared crosses and shells
And both got back up again after they fell
They never picked the fight, but they re there
To pick up the pieces
[Outro]
God only knows where we d be without soldiers and Jesus
Soldiers and Jesus
