Tim Mcgraw - If You're Reading This Lyrics

Lyrics

You're readin' this
My Momma's sittin' there
Looks like I only got a one way ticket over here
Sure wish I could give you one more kiss

And war was just a game we played when we were kids
I'm layin' down my gun
I'm hangin' up my boots
I'm up here with God and we're Both watchin' over you

So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul
Where my momma always prayed

That it would go
If you're readin' this
I'm already home
If you're readin' this
Half way around the world

I won't be there
To see the birth of our little girl
I hope she looks like you
I hope she fights like me
Stands up for the innocent and the weak

I'm layin' down my gun
I'm hangin' up my boots
Tell dad I don't regret that I followed in his shoes
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town

And know my soul
Where my momma always prayed that it would go
If you're readin' this
I'm already home
If you're readin' this

There's goin' to come a day
You'll move on
And find some one else
And that's ok
Just remember this

I'm in a better place
Where soldiers live in peace
And Angels sing Amazing Grace
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town

And know my soul
Where my Momma always prayed that it would go
And if you're readin' this
And if you're readin' this
I'm already home
