[Verse 1]
G C/G G C/G I never thought that this is where I'd settle down. G C/G G I thought I'd die an old man back in my hometown. G/F# Em They gave me this plot of land, C D G G/F# Me and some other men, for a job well done. G C/G G C/G There's a big White House sits on a hill just up the road. G C/G G The man inside, he cried the day they brought me home. G/F# Em C D They folded up a flag and told my Mom and Dad: G "We're proud of your son."
[Chorus]
C D G And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property. C D G I'm on sacred ground and I'm in the best of company. Em D C I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done. D I can rest in peace; C D I'm one of the chosen ones: G C/G G C/G I made it to Arlington.
[Verse 2]
G C/G G C/G I remember Daddy brought me here when I was eight. G C/G G We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay. G/F# Em And when we finally found that cross, C D G C/G He said: "Son, this is what it costs to keep us free." G G/C G C/G Now here I am, a thousand stones away from him. G G/C G He recognized me on the first day I came in. G/F# Em C D And it gave me a chill when he clicked his heels, G And saluted me.
[Chorus]
C D G And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property. C D G I'm on sacred ground and I'm in the best of company. Em D C I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done. D I can rest in peace; C D I'm one of the chosen ones: G C/G G C/G I made it to Arlington.
[Bridge]
Em D G G/F# Em And everytime I hear twenty one guns, C G/B C D I know they brought another hero home to us.
[Outro]
Em D/F# C We're thankful for those thankful for the things we've done. D We can rest in peace; C D We are the chosen ones: G C/G G C/G We made it to Arlington. Em Yeah, dust to dust, D Don't cry for us:
We made it to Arlington.
