[A] [G] [D]
I saw her from a distance as she walked up to the wall
With a little boy beside her and a face that I [A] recall
[D] She took out pen and paper as to trace her memories
And [Em] the little boy said, Mama, [A]
that's the same [D] name as me
And she [G] said, Son, he's someone [D] special [G]
and he meant a lot [D] to me
[G] Even though you've never seen [D] him, [G]
I know he'd be [A] proud to see
[G] A young man who looks just like him, who grew up [D] strong and [A] tall
[Bm]
[G] And son, I know you'll [A] understand, your daddy's more than a name [D] on a wall
She [G] [D]
[A] [D] said he really missed the family, [G] being home on [D] Christmas Day
And he died for God and country [G] in a place so far [A] away
She [D] said, I know it's hard for little boys, [G] but I think you'll [D] understand
[Em] So son, just be proud of him, [A] cause God surely [D] knows I am
