G Am
Johnny lived next door to me and Paul lived down the block
D C G
We'd meet each day at my house sharp at six oclock
Am
We'd race our bikes to school and Paul would win
D C G
Johnny said that cause we're nine and Paul had just turned ten
Am
First day of High School on my way to my first class
D C G
Three football players said they wouldn't let me pass
Am
I set my books down and I rolled up my sleeve
D C G
And then I noticed there were two boys next to me
chorus
C D G
It was me and John and Paul
C D G
The best friends you ever saw
C D Em
All for one and one for all
C D G
It was me and John and Paul
Am
I wonder why they call it graduation day
D C G
It's more like a funeral for youth thats passed away
Am
Paul said he's leaving for the Army in two weeks
D C G
Johnny said lets go to town and make some memories
chorus
solo
Am
Years later I heard Paul came back from the Gulf War
D C G
I flew up to Tennessee to visit him once more
Am
It didn't shock me none to hear that he'd been brave
D C G
He lost his own life but another one he saved
Am
I waited by a tree till everyone had left
D C G
And I went up to say a prayer where my pal slept
Am
And then I heard a voice I hadn't heard in years
D C G
I didn't need to turn around I knew just who was there
chorus
repeat chorus
