Cadd9 C/B D Cadd9 G Cadd9 D
[Verse]
G D/F#
He grew up in a time
Cadd9 C/B
When a third-grade education
Cadd9 C/B
Was all the school you needed
Am7 D
To work the family farm.
G D/F#
He'd take time off on Sunday
Cadd9 C/B
Him and all his family
Am
warm a pew
C/B Cadd9
(FILL 1) G
And give thanks to the Lord.
Cadd9 C/B Am7 C/B
There was no gray only black and white.
Cadd9 C/B
Didn't need no-one to tell him
A7 D
What was wrong or right.
Cadd9 D Cadd9 G Cadd9 D
'Cause he had God Family and Country.
[Verse]
G D/F#
He set aside his plow
Cadd9 C/B
In early 1940
Cadd9 C/B
Said goodbye to his small town
A7 D
And put on the Army green.

A7 C/B C
(FILL 1) G
Not one word about the awful things he'd seen.
Cadd9 C/B
His was a generation
A7 C/B
That answered without question.

'Cause they were fightin' for...

G D/F#
On the coffee table
Cadd9 C/B
Sits the family Bible
Cadd9 C/B
Where just last year he added
A7 D
A little boy to the family tree.
G D/F#
There's the folded flag they gave us
Cadd9 C/B
On the day he left us.
A7 Am
But the thing that I remember most
A7 D
Is the way that he...
Cadd9 D Cadd9 G
In God Family and Country...
Cadd9
Ohhh we've got God...
D
Family...
And Country...
