Intro: C F C F 

verse 1 
          C 
There's a memory that rings clear as a bell 
                                        Am 
I was bouncing like a bull rider on his knee 
       C                                F 
I sure miss those old stories that he'd tell 
       G 
From a hobo on a freight train 

To a sailor out at sea 
   C 
My granny says that I've got his smile 
         Am 
He's the reason I take pride in my last name 
      F 
No he never made the headlines 

Nobody sings his song 
       G 
So for every unsung hero I'm singing this today 


Am C So raise your bottle to the boys and let's remember Am C All the fallen and the price they had to pay Dm C Hold them up high and salute all the ones that made it back G F And for the ones away from home, don't forget to pray
verse 2 C Grandpa could sing you every Hank Williams song Am C Am But it's Amazing Grace that brought him back around F He'd shed a tear talking about the day G That German gunner shot his best friend down C My daddy fought a war some say in vain Am He came home in a wheel chair, and he walks with a cane F Seems like every generation has to pay the cost G I think about my family And the good friends that we've lost
Am C So raise your bottle to the boys and let's remember Am C All the fallen and the price they had to pay Dm C Hold them up high and salute all the ones that made it back G F And for the ones away from home, don't forget to pray
Bridge Dm C From Normandy to Korea, to Khe Sanh, Vietnam F C Heartaches streach from coast to coast Dm C From Bunker Hill to Fallujah, Gettysburg, to Japan F C F Everyone who's ever served or lost someone G F Em Dm Let's make a toast
Am C So raise your bottle to the boys and let's remember Am C All the fallen and the price they had to pay Dm C Hold them up high and salute all the ones that made it back G F And for the ones away from home, don't forget to pray
Outro C F C F C E G C
