Intro:  G C  F  C    G  C  F  C

Am         F          G               C
The day I shipped out they numbered a dozen
Am        F           G          C
Upon my return were a hundred or so
         Am                 F          G            C
From the coast and from the prairie I bet they keep coming
Am            F        G     C
Add one more name from Ontario


    G        C             F          C
And carry me home down the highway of heroes
G        C                     Am     G
People above with their flags flying low
G         C              F          C
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G             C              F     C   Am F G C    Am F G C
True patriot love  There was never more


Am               F              G          C
I served with distinction    No visions of glory
Am               F           G        C
I served without question of personal gain  
        Am     F                 G           C
Seek no justification   It's not part of my story
        Am           F           G          C
And it  offers no comfort to the ones who remain


    G         C            F          C
And carry me home down the highway of heroes
G       C                Am          G
People above with their flags flying low
G         C              F           C
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G            C               F       C  G C F C G C Am G  G C F C G C F C
True patriot love  There was never more


  Am         F               G             C
I took up my vocation  I was called by my nation
Am        F            G        C
Without hesitation my answer I gave
             Am        F              G          C
Now I am not wondering of things that I might've been
    Am        F             G        C
I'm no consolation to the forgotten brave


     G            C        F           C
And carry me home down the highway of heroes
G       C                Am          G
People above with their flags flying low
G        C               F                C
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G            C               F        C
True patriot love  There was never more
G           C          F                C
Carry me home down the highway of heroes
G          C              Am          G
People I love  with there hands down  low
G        C               F                C
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G            C               F        C
True patriot love  There was never more
          F     C              F      C    (repeat and fade)
There was never more There was never more
