[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][D][Bm][D][Bm][D]

[Verse 1]
He came
home to Tenness[Bm]ee
[D]Young man at the [Bm]end of forty [Em]five
Only [A]one of sev[Asus4]en
[A]men in [Asus4]his platoon
That made it back [D]alive

[Verse 2]
And he [D]must've seen [Bm]some tough things
But he [D]never said too much
about [Em]all that
Put his [Asus4]pictures and his memories
[D]in our seat[A]er chairs
[Asus4]Everythin[Em]g but his
[Asus4]old army [D]hat[Asus4]

[Verse 3]
[D]By the time that I was born
The winds of change had swept
across [Em]our land
They were [A]burning [Asus4]flag
s and draft cards
When they [A]bothered [Asus4]to
take some kind [D]of stand

[Verse 4]
Now we [D]used to laugh at grandpa
Like he was some old [Bm]relic
[D]from the pas[Em]t
'Cause he [A]never left [Asus4]the house
unless he was [A]wearing[Asus4]
That [Em]funny looking [A]worn out army [D]hat

[Verse 5]
[G]Every eye was on him
Anytime when he went anywhere
[D]They whi[Asus4]spered and they pointed
But [A]you could tell my grandpa didn't [D]care

[Verse 6]
"I ain't [G]wearing this for them",
he'd say
"It's a whole lot more than [D]that
For my [Em]buddies who gave everything
The [A]least that [Asus4]I can do is keep on[Em]
wearing this [A]old army [D]hat"[Asus4]

[Verse 7]
He [D]called me up one morning
Said he'd seen it on the news
on [Em]his TV
"They've [A]opened up
a monument on World War II
In Washington [D]DC"

[Verse 8]
"I ain't [D]getting any younger
And I wish someone would take
me to [Em]see that"
And I [A]couldn't help but think they're
gonna laugh at you up there
If you [Em]show up in that [A]silly army [D]hat
[Asus4]Two

[Verse 9]
[D]strangers, both salute
As grandpa walked up to the monument
[Em]One [A]said, "Thank you soldier,
[Asus4]for the j[A]ob well done"
The other said, "A[D]men"

[Verse 10]
And [D]a young boy told him
"Sir, my daddy went to war and
didn't make [Em]it back
Could you [A]take a picture standing
[Asus4]here beside[A] me
And [Em]maybe let me [A]wear your [D]army hat"

[Verse 11]
[G]Every eye was on him
There was not a dry one in [D]the crowd
They [Asus4]whispered and they pointed
As my [A]grandpa stood up extra
tall [D]and proud

[Verse 12]
And he [G]told him, "Son, just keep it"
When the young boy tried his best
to give [D]it back
"You're a [Em]brave little soldier and
[A]every soldier need[Asus4]s
His [Em]very own authen[A]tic army [D]hat"

[Verse 13]
"For your [Em]daddy who gave
everything [A]the least that I can do
Is [Em]pass on this old [A]worn out army [D]hat"

[Outro 1]
