[D]The service

And all the [A]boys they flinched their heads
Yeah that shook me [D]up I guess
[G]I been home a month now and
I [A]still can't get no rest

Standing by the grave of a [A]dearly

[D]Barbecue grills [G]and lawnmowers
Kids on [A]four- wheelers

Yeah they buried you on a Sat[D]urday
Geor[G]gia lost to Tennessee,
[A]you would have liked that I know
[D]Afterwards we went to[G]

Your mama's boyfriend got [A]drunk
saying it should have been me
And I wish it [D]was, him I [G]mean
[A]So I went home,
got drunk and watched the TV

With [D]nothing much to say except [G]sorry
it turned out [A]like it [G]did

ican flags in the [G]wind
Standing by the grave of a

[Verse 5]
[A]Hey, the[D]re's onl[Bm]y one road leads out
of this town and it [G]comes [A]right [D]back
So I just drive [Bm]in circles, [G]circles,
[Bm]and I try [A]not to blow my stack
[F#m]Out at the mall and the motor mile,
it's just as [G]lonesome as a sea
And man [D]the girls round here,
the girls round here
They're just as [A]hopeless as they

[Interlude 2]
used to be
[A][D][G][A][D][G][A]

[Verse 6]
[A]So go on and [D]tie another yel[G]low ribbon
round [A]the old hackberry tree
And tamp [D]the dirt [G]down, y'all go on home now,
[A]there ain't nothing here to see

departed [A]friend
With noth[D]ing much to say except [G]sorry
it turned out [A]like it [G]did
21 guns [A]for [D]21 years and
American flags in [G]the wind
Standing by the grave of [A]a
dearly departed [D]friend
I'm just stand[G]ing by the grave of [A]a
dearly depar[D]ted friend
