Names Carved In The Wall
Recorded by George Jones
Written by Jamie O'Hara
GThere's teddy bears and high school rings
CAnd old photographs that mommas bring
GThe daddies with their young boys playing D7ball
GThere's combat boots that he used to wear
CWhen he was sent over there
GThere's names cD7arved in the wall G
There's cigarettes and there's cans of beer
CAnd notes that say I miss you dear
GAnd children who don't say anything at D7all
GThere's purple hearts and packs of gum
CFatherless daughters and fatherless sons
GAnd there's names cD7arved in the wall G
CThey come from all across this land
GIn pickup trucks and mini-vans
D7Searching for a boy from long Gago
CThey scan the wall and find his name
GThe tear drops fall like pouring rain
D7And silently they leave a gift and Ggo
There stars of David and Rosary beads
CAnd crucifixion figurines
GAnd flowers of all colors large and D7small
GThere's a boy scout badge and a merit pin
CLittle American flags waving in the wind
GAnd there's names cD7arved in the wall G
There's names cD7arved in the wall G
