[Verse]
C#
I saw the echo of a thousand wars in the face of the man
Fm D# Fm
As he looked out over the watching crowd, searching for a friend
C# D#
Sometimes he would see a face, but then each face looks the same
Fm
Like looking into a mirror and reading a different name
C7 Fm
Different name
[Verse]
C#
He learned his lessons early, a confirmation under fire
Fm D# Fm
Now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire
C# D#
We are lucky in our fortune, we can turn the other way
Fm
But the veteran fights again at night, struggles through the day
C7 Fm D#/G G#
Through the day
[Chorus]
D# Fm D#/G G#
When you sing, do you sing for the man who's broken?
A# Fm C#
Do you sing for the man who stands alone?
Fm D#
Do you sing for the endless list of names?
Fm D#
Etched in marble stone
Fm
Etched in marble stone
[Verse]
C# Fm
He came back an addict, he came back a drunk
D# Fm
He came back a cripple for pieces in a trunk
C# D#
He came back a hero to a waving flag parade
Fm
He was left with nothing when the glory began to fade
C7 Fm
Began to fade
[Verse]
C# Fm
So what do you say to the veteran who can't take it any more?
D# Fm
You guard your words, you hold it back, you talk of anything but the war
C# D#
Just reach out over the distance and let him know you're there
Fm
And hope he hasn't gone too far, or forgotten how to care
C7 Fm D#/G G#
How to care
[Chorus]
D# Fm D#/G G#
When you sing, do you sing for the man who's broken?
A# Fm C#
Do you sing for the man who stands alone?
Fm D#
Do you sing for the endless list of names?
Fm D#/G G#
Etched in marble stone
[Chorus]
D# Fm D#/G G#
When you sing, do you sing for the man who's broken?
A# Fm C#
Do you sing for the man who stands alone?
Fm D#
Do you sing for the endless list of names?
Fm D#
Etched in marble stone
Fm
Etched in marble stone
