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
