[E]
I saw her from a distance [A] as she walked up to the [E] wall
In her hand she held some flowers [A] as her tears began [B] to fall
She [E] took out a pen and paper [A] as to trace her [E] memories
[F#m] She looked up to heaven [B] and the words she [E] said were these
[A]
[E] She said, [A] Lord, my boy was special and he meant so much [E] to me
[A] And oh, I'd love to see him just one more time, [B] you see
Oh, [A] I have memories and the moments to [E] recall
[G#m]
So [C#m] [E] [A] Lord, could you tell [E] him [B] he's more than a name, [E] oh Lord
She said he really missed her family [A] and being home on [E] Christmas Day
And he died for God's sake [A] in a place so [B] far away
[E] I remember just a little boy [A] playing war since [E] he was three
[F#m] Lord, this time I know [B] he's not coming [E] home to me
She [A] said, Lord, my boy was special and he meant so [E] much to me
[A] And oh, I'd love to see him, but I know it [B] just can't be
[A] So I thank you for my memories and the moments [E] to recall
[G#m] [C#m]
[A] But Lord, could you tell him [E] [B] he's more than a name, [E] oh Lord
[C#m]
[E] [A] Lord, could you tell him [E] [B] he's more than a name, [E] oh Lord
