[Verse 1]
A D
It''''s the eleventh of November down in Nashville, Tennessee
E A
Free breakfast at the Waffle House if I show ''''em my I.D.
A D
A parade up on the riverfront, you can hear the trumpets play
E A
Hands on hearts, the color guard kicks it off on Veterans Day
[Chorus]
Bm D A
And they thank me for my service and wave their little flags
Bm D A
They genuflect on Sundays and yes, they''''d send us back
Bm D A
But I believe in God and country and in the angels up on high
Bm D A
And in heaven shining down on us through bullet holes in the sky
Bm D A
Mm-hmm-hmm, hmm-mm, hmm-mm
[Verse 2]
A D
Waitress asks me how I''''m doing but I don''''t know what to say
E A
I was thinking ''''bout the battlefield the night I learned to pray
A D
Marchers make their way down Main Street, the crowd begins to cheer
E A
I feel my chest exploding as my eyes fill up with tears
[Chorus]
Bm D A
They thank me for my service and wave their little flags
Bm D A
They genuflect on Sundays and yes, they''''d send us back
Bm D A
But I believe in God and country and in the angels up on high
Bm D A
And in heaven shining down on us through bullet holes in the sky
Bm D A
Mm-hmm-hmm, hmm-mm, hmm-mm

A D
Oh, Jesus said forgive them, they know not what they do
E A
And he''''s here with me this morning and his words they still ring true
A D
So I hang my head and pray for those we lost and those who remain
E A
As the clouds burst over Nashville, it begins to rain
[Chorus]
Bm D A
They thank me for my service and wave their little flags
Bm D A
They genuflect on Sundays and yes, they''''d send us back
Bm D A
But I believe in God and country and in the angels up on high
Bm D A
And in heaven shining down on us through bullet holes in the sky
Bm D A
And in heaven shining down on us through bullet holes in the sky
Bm D A
Oh-o-oh, mm-hmm, mm-hmm
