[00:06.34]You're reading this, my mama's sittin there
[00:12.00]Look's like I only got a one way ticket over here
[00:18.63]I sure wish I could give you one more kiss
[00:24.71]War was just a game we played when we were kids
[00:31.33]Well I'm layin down my gun and hanging up my boots
[00:38.25]I'm up here with God and we're both watching over you
[00:44.59]So lay me down
[00:51.23]In that open field out on the edge of town
[00:57.77]And know my soul
[01:04.20]Is where my mama always prayed that it would go
[01:10.88]And if you're reading this
[01:14.49]I'm already home
[01:17.12]
[01:21.36]If you're reading this halfway around the world
[01:27.70]I won't be there to see the birth of our little girl
[01:34.40]I hope she looks like you
[01:37.71]I hope she fights like me
[01:41.17]And stands up for the innocent and the weak
[01:47.52]I'm layin down my gun and hanging up my boots
[01:54.51]Tell dad I don't regret that I followed in his shoes
[02:01.15]So lay me down
[02:08.09]In that open field out on the edge of town
[02:14.83]And know my soul
[02:21.30]Is where my mama always prayed that it would go
[02:27.79]And if you're reading this
[02:31.11]I'm already home
[02:35.08]
[02:40.52]If you're reading this, there's gonna come a day
[02:48.48]When you'll move on and find someone else, and that's ok
[02:55.14]Just remember this, I'm in a better place
[03:01.92]Where soldiers live in peace and angels sing Amazing Grace
[03:08.52]So lay me down
[03:15.16]In that open field out on the edge of town
[03:22.22]And know my soul
[03:28.80]Is where my mama always prayed that it would go
[03:35.32]And if you're reading this
[03:39.06]If you're reading this...
[03:42.26]I'm already home
