 ---------------------------------------------
 Intro = chorus chords: D   G   Bm  A 
 Verse 1:
     F#                 G           
 The boy only wanted to give Mother something
     D                    A
 And all of her roses had bloomed.
 F#                   G
 Looking at her as he came rushing in with them
 D                      A
 Knowing her roses were doomed,
 EM            F#            Bm  
 All she could see were some thorns buried deep
         Em              F#           Bm         A
 And the tears that were cried as she tended his wounds
 
 CHORUS: (she)
           D           G     Bm  A
 And (she) knew it was love
        D               G     Bm   A 
 It was one (she) could understand
        D           G    
 He was showing his love,
     Bm            A        D     G  Bm  A 
 And that's how he hurt his hands.
 
 Verse 2:
 He still remembers that night as child
 On his mother's knee
 She held him close and she opened her bible
 And quietly started to read,
 And seeing a picture of Jesus he cried out,
 "Momma, he's got some scars just like me."
 
 CHORUS: (he)
 (solos over a verse and chorus)
 
 Verse 3:
 Now the boy's grown and moved out on his own
 When Uncle Sam comes along.
 A foreign affair, but our young men were there 
 And luck had his number drawn.
 It wasn't that long till our hero was gone
 He gave to a friend what he learned from the cross.
 
 CHORUS: (they)
