Intro
Dm
[Verse]
A#
I saw the echo of a thousand wars in the face of the man
Dm C Dm
As he looked out over the watching crowd, searching for a friend
A# C
Sometimes he would see a face, but then each face looks the same
Dm
Like looking into a mirror and reading a different name
A7 Dm
Different name
[Verse]
A#
He learned his lessons early, a confirmation under fire
Dm C Dm
Now his eyes stare into the distance like a prisoner behind the wire
A# C
We are lucky in our fortune, we can turn the other way
Dm
But the veteran fights again at night, struggles through the day
A7 Dm C/E F
Through the day
[Chorus]
C Dm C/E F
When you sing, do you sing for the man who's broken?
G Dm A#
Do you sing for the man who stands alone?
Dm C
Do you sing for the endless list of names?
Dm C
Etched in marble stone
Dm
Etched in marble stone
[Verse]
A# Dm
He came back an addict, he came back a drunk
C Dm
He came back a cripple for pieces in a trunk
A# C
He came back a hero to a waving flag parade
Dm
He was left with nothing when the glory began to fade
A7 Dm
Began to fade
[Verse]
A# Dm
So what do you say to the veteran who can't take it any more?
C Dm
You guard your words, you hold it back, you talk of anything but the war
A# C
Just reach out over the distance and let him know you're there
Dm
And hope he hasn't gone too far, or forgotten how to care
A7 Dm C/E F
How to care
[Chorus]
C Dm C/E F
When you sing, do you sing for the man who's broken?
G Dm A#
Do you sing for the man who stands alone?
Dm C
Do you sing for the endless list of names?
Dm C/E F
Etched in marble stone
[Chorus]
C Dm C/E F
When you sing, do you sing for the man who's broken?
G Dm A#
Do you sing for the man who stands alone?
Dm C
Do you sing for the endless list of names?
Dm C
Etched in marble stone
Dm
Etched in marble stone
