Note to the Unknown Soldier Lyrics

Intro:C G//B Am G Dm F C (twice)
I don't know you,
I never met you,
For laughs I'll call you Sam,
You were the son,
Of Mrs. Someone,
I hope she understands,
Sam you were all that you had,
Are you happy or sad,
I never knew you,
But I'm told you're the best we had,
Were you so tall,
Did you play Basketball,
Was there a sweetheart at home,
Did you write her letters,
Did it make you better face the great unknown,
Sam did you feel alone,
You were so far from home,
I never knew you,
But I know you're the best man I know,
Could you tell it was time,
See it coming in the back of your mind,
When it was over, was it over,
Sam I'm glad you're on my side,
I don't know you,
I never met you,
Can I call you Sam,
Did you have a son,
A daughter with a little one,
I might go and thank Sam you're the best that we have,
You make me happy and sad,
If you were here, I'd buy the beers,
I'd shake your hand and say good man,
And though the sun would shine about the same,
It's a better world because you came,
Sincerely yours, my kids will know your name,
