George Jones – 50000 Names Carved In The Wall (Guitar)

G
There's teddy bears and high school rings

C
And old photographs that mommas bring

G                                        D7
The daddies with their young boys playing ball

G
There's combat boots that he used to wear

C
When he was sent over there

G              D7                  G
There's 50,000 names carved in the wall

G
There's cigarettes and there's cans of beer

C
And notes that say I miss you dear

G                                      D7
And children who don't say anything at all

G
There's purple hearts and packs of gum

C
Fatherless daughters and fatherless sons

G                  D7                  G
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall

     C
They come from all across this land

G
In pickup trucks and mini-vans

D7                            G
Searching for a boy from long ago

     C
They scan the wall and find his name

G
The teardrops fall like pouring rain

D7                                 G   Eb
And silently they leave a gift and go

Ab
There's Stars of David and rosary beads

Db
And crucifixion figurines

Ab                              Eb7
And flowers of all colors large and small

Ab
There's a boy scout badge and a merit pin

        Db
Little American flags waving in the wind

Ab                 Eb7          Ab
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall

Ab             Eb7                 Ab     Eb7  Ab
There's 50,000 names carved in the wall
