Em D Cadd9
Pray for the fightin' man for peace in field of war

Pray for the mothers who sent their sons a prayer for one day more

Pray for the fathers who raised their boys so proud to stand up for what they believe

And pray for their wives as they sleep in their half empty beds and the children they haven't met

G D Cadd9 G
Think of you, and say a prayer, look around at all he's missing
G D Cadd9
While we're lying in our beds he's out there taking fire
G D Cadd9 G
And he didn't ask for this to happen, but he will answer when he's called
G D Cadd9
You may not understand the plans, so pray for the fightin' man
