IntroC F C FVerse 1CThere's a memory that rings clear as a bellAmI was bouncing like a bull rider on his kneeC FI sure miss those old stories that he'd tellGFrom a hobo on a freight trainTo a sailor out at seaCMy granny says that I've got his smileAmHe's the reason I take pride in my last nameFNo he never made the headlinesNobody sings his songGSo for every unsung hero I'm singing this todayChorusAm CSo raise your bottle to the boys and let's rememberAm CAll the fallen and the price they had to payDm CHold them up high and salute all the ones that made it backG FAnd for the ones away from home, don't forget to prayVerse 2CGrandpa could sing you every Hank Williams songAm C AmBut it's Amazing Grace that brought him back aroundFHe'd shed a tear talking about the dayGThat German gunner shot his best friend downCMy daddy fought a war some say in vainAmHe came home in a wheel chair, and he walks with a caneFSeems like every generation has to pay the costGI think about my familyAnd the good friends that we've lostChorusAm CSo raise your bottle to the boys and let's rememberAm CAll the fallen and the price they had to payDm CHold them up high and salute all the ones that made it backG FAnd for the ones away from home, don't forget to prayBridgeDm CFrom Normandy to Korea, to Khe Sanh, VietnamF CHeartaches streach from coast to coastDm CFrom Bunker Hill to Fallujah, Gettysburg, to JapanF C FEveryone who's ever served or lost someoneG F Em DmLet's make a toastChorusAm CSo raise your bottle to the boys and let's rememberAm CAll the fallen and the price they had to payDm CHold them up high and salute all the ones that made it backG FAnd for the ones away from home, don't forget to prayOutroC F C F C E G C
