Highway Of Heroes

[G]   [C]   [Fmaj7]  [C]  [G]  [C]  [Am]  [G]

[Am]The day I shipped out they num[Fmaj7]bered a d[G]ozen                 [C]

[Am]Upon my return we[Fmaj7]re a hundr[G]ed or so               [C]

From the c[Am]oast and from the prairie I bet they k[Fmaj7]eep comin[G]g                      [C]

[Am]Add one more name from On[Fmaj7]tario   [G]         [C]

And car[G]ry me home down the [C]highw[Fmaj7]ay of heroes                [C]

Peo[G]ple above w[C]ith thei[Am7]r flags flying low              [G]

[G]Carry me softly[C] down the highw[Fmaj7]ay of heroes               [C]

[G]True patriot love   [C]

There was never mor[Am]e

[Am]I serv[Fmaj7]ed with [G]dist[C]inction
No visions of glory
I served without question of personal gain
Seek no justification
It's not part of my story
And it all serves no comfort to the ones who remain

[G]Just[C] car[F]ry m[C]e ho[G]me d[C]own [Am]the h[G]ighway of heroes
People above with the flags flying low
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
True patriot love
There was never more

[Am]I too[Fmaj7]k up my [G]voca[C]tion
I was called by my nation
Without hesitation my answer I gave
Now I am not wondering of things that I might've been
I'm no consolation to the forgotten brave

[G]So c[C]arry[F] me [C]home[G] dow[C]n th[Am]e hig[G]hway of heroes
People above with the flags flying low
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
True patriot love
There was never more

End with:  [Fmaj7] - [C]
