[Pre-Chorus[
Cadd9 I hold it up and show my buddies,
     Cadd9 Like we ain’t scared and our boots ain’t muddy
    G                           D/F# And they all laugh like there’s somethin’ funny,
          Em7/B                                  Cadd9 About the way I talk, when I say Momma sends her best yall

[Chorus]
Cadd9 I fold it up and put it in my shirt
     Cadd9 Pick up my gun and get back to work
G      D/F#                Em7/B And it keeps me drivin’ on

Cadd9 Dear son I know I ain’t written
    Cadd9 And sittin’ here tonight alone in the kitchen
    G              D/F# It occurs to me, I might not have said it

       G                      D/F# But no one laughs cause there ain’t nothin’ funny
       Em7/B                     Cadd9 When a soldier cries, and I just wipe my eyes

[Chorus]
Cadd9 I fold it up and put it in my shirt
