B                       F#
 When you take me up to Rose Hill
B                     F#
 When you lay my body low
B                              F#
 Wrap me in a flag, throw some flowers on the ground,
B                            F#
 Say a few words then let me go


B                            F#
There's no need to defend my honor
B                      F#
 Or justify the life I gave 
B                                       F#
 There's no need for the pictures of my happy childhood there, please
B                        F#
 Don’t pour salt upon my grave


G#m                   E
 I knew long ago that I would be the one
G#m                               F#
 To brandish my sword should they beat those battle drums


B           E                   F#       
 I stood my ground, I stood for something
               B     E      F#
 Worth falling for     Yeah Yeah


B                 F#
 Ask my father to forgive me
B                      F#
 I know he didn't understand
B                       F#
 He worked too hard for way too many years
B                             F#
 To lose his boy in a foreign sand


B                F#
 No doubt, he is angry
B                             F#
 No doubt where he'll put the blame
           B
 But don't let him fall apart, Mama,
               F#
 Don't let him go back to the pills
B                         F#
 Only pride will ease his pain


G#m                  E
 I died a patriot, a soldier just like him
G#m                             F#
 Fought like he taught me to, until the very end



B           E                   F#       
 I stood my ground, I stood for something
               B     E      F#
 Worth falling for     Yeah Yeah  Worth falling for...

G#m
 I hope this war's worth dying for
E
 I hope this war's worth dying for
G#m                            F#
 I hope this war's worth dying for


B                            F#
 Take my stripes and take my medals
B                          F#
 Take my flag and dog tags too
B                      F#
 Put 'em in a package, stain it with your tears,
B                              F#
 Send it up to Pennsylvania Avenue


B                              F#
 My last regards to the man in charge
B                                 F#
 Let him know I served my country well
B                               F#
 He was right behind me all the way to Kandahar
B                         F#
 The night my broken body fell


G#m                        E
 Don’t let a day go by without a peaceful prayer
G#m                                   F# 
 For my brothers and my sisters still fighting over there


B           E                            F#       
 They stand their ground, They stand for something
               B     E      F#
 Worth falling for     Yeah Yeah  


B           E                            F#       
 They stood their ground, They stood for something
               B     E      F#                     B  E  F#
 Worth falling for               Worth dying for  

 
 I hope this war's worth dying for
                        (yeah yeah)
 I hope this war's worth dying for
                        (yeah yeah)
 I hope this war's worth dying for
                        (yeah yeah)
