Memorial Day Tribute to members of the United States Armed Forces who now rest in peace in Arlington National Cemetery - set to the song - "Arlington" by Trace Adkins - In honor of the Fallen Heroes of the US Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Reserves. All gave some, some gave all. These are the men and women who bought our freedom at the price of their lives. We give thanks to those who made the ultimate sacrifice and pray for the loved ones they left behind.

Lyrics:

I never thought that this is where I'd settle down

I thought I'd die an old man back in my hometown

They gave me this plot of land,me and some other men, for a job well done

There's a big white house sits on a hill just up the road

The man inside he cried the day they brought me home

The folded up a flag and told my mom and dad

'We're pround of your son'

And I'm proud to be on this paecful piece of property

I'm on scared ground and I'm in the best of company

I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done

I can rest in peace, I'm one of the chosen ones, I made it to Arlington

I remember that my daddy brought me here when I was eight

We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay

And when we finally found that cross

He said, 'son this is what it cost to keep us free'

Now here I am a thousand stones away from him

He recongized me on the first day I came in

And it gave me a chill when he clicked his heels and saluted me

I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property

I'm on scared ground and in the best of company

I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done

I can rest in peace I'm one of the chosen ones, I made it to Arlington

And every time I hear twenty-one guns

I know they brought another hero home to us

We're thankful for those thankful for the things we've done

We can rest in peace, 'cause we were the chosen ones

We made it to Arlington, yea, dust to dust

Don't cry for us, we made it to Arlington
