[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I was bEorn to be of service
Camp LeBjeune just felt like home
I had F#mhonor, I found purpose
Sir, yes Asir
That's what I know
They Esent us to a place I never Bheard of weeks before
When you're F#mnineteen, it ain't hard to sleep
In the Adesert on God's floor
Close your F#meyes, stop counting sheep
You ain't in Abootcamp anymore
[Instrumental 1]

[Verse 2]
We were tEaught to shoot our rifles
Man and Bwoman, side by side
Thought we'd be F#mmet as liberators
In a Athousand year old fight
I got this Epainful ringing in my ear
From an BIED last night
But no F#mlead lined humvee war machine, could Asave my sergeant's life
Three more F#msoldiers, six civilians
Need these Awords to come out right
[Chorus]
EGod of mercy, BGod of light
F#mSave your children Afrom this life
EHear these words, this Bhumble plea
For F#mI have seen the Asuffering
And Ewith this prayer I'm Bhoping
That Awe, can be unbroEken
[Instrumental 2]
| E | E | A | A E
[Verse 3]
It's 18 moEnths now, I've been stateside
With this Bmedal on my chest
But there are F#mthings I can't remember
And there are Athings I won't forget
I Elie awake at night with dreams the Bdevil shouldn't see
I wanna F#mscream, but I can't breathe
And Christ, I'm Asweating through these sheets
Where's my F#mbrothers? Where's my country?
Where's my Ahow things used to be?
[Chorus]
EGod of mercy, BGod of light
F#mSave your children Afrom this life
EHear these words, this Bhumble plea
For F#mI have seen the Asuffering
And Ewith this prayer I'm Bhoping
That Awe, can be unbroEken
[Bridge]
My C#mservice dog's done more for me
Than the Amedication would
There ain't no Eangel that's coming to save me
But Beven if they could
[Verse 4]
Today, E22 will die from suicide
Just like Byesterday, they're gone
I live my F#mlife for each tomorrow
So their Amemories will live on
Once we were Eboys, and we were strangers
Now we're Bbrothers and we're men
Someday you'll F#mask me, was it worth it to be of Aservice in the end?
Well, the F#mblessing, and the curse is, yeah, I'd Ado it all again
