What can you see from your window?

I can't see anything from mine.

Flags on the side of the highway
    C/G                        G      D
and scripture on grocery store signs.

Maybe eighteen was too early.

Maybe thirty or forty is too.

Did you get your chance to make peace with the man

before he sent down his angels for you?

Mamas and grandmamas love you
       Em              D           G  G/F#
'cause that's all they know how to do.
Em                       Bm
You never planned on the bombs in the sand
   C            Cm        G        
or sleeping in your dress blues.

Your wife said this all would be funny
     G                       Em
when you came back home in a week.
      G                        Em 
You'd turn twenty-two and we'd celebrate you
     C/G                  G      D
in a bar or a tent by the creek.
     G                     Em
Your baby would just about be here.
     G                       Em
Your very last tour would be up
    G                              Em
but you won't be back. They're all dressing in black
         C/G                    G     D
drinking sweet tea in styrofoam cups.

Now the high school gymnasium's ready,
        G                      Em
full of flowers and old legionnaires.
G                   Em
Nobody showed up to protest,
C/G              G     D
just sniffle and stare.
            G                           Em
But there's red, white, and blue in the rafters
            G                       Em
and there's silent old men from the corps.
G                           Em
What did they say when they shipped you away
        C/G                   G   D
to give all in some god awful war

[Chorus]
Em     D        G
Nobody here can forget you.
    Em             D         G  G/F#
You showed us what we had to lose.
