Trace Adkins
Arlington

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
They folded up a flag
And told my mom and dad
‘We're proud of your son'

And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property
I'm on sacred 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 Daddy brought me here when I was eight
We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay
When we finally found that cross
He said ‘Son, this is what it costs
To keep us free'
Now here I am, a thousand stones away from him
He recognized me on the first day I came in
And it gave me a chill
When he clicked his heels
And saluted me

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

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 are the chosen ones
We made it to Arlington

Yeah, dust to dust
Don't cry for us
We made it to Arlington


Mirror lyrics:

We made it to Arlington
Don't cry for us
Yeah, dust to dust

We made it to Arlington
We can rest in peace, ‘cause we are the chosen ones
We're thankful for those thankful for the things we've done

I know they brought another hero home to us
And every time I hear twenty-one guns

I made it to Arlington
I can rest in peace, I'm one of the chosen ones
I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done
I'm on sacred ground, and I'm in the best of company
And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property

And saluted me
When he clicked his heels
And it gave me a chill
He recognized me on the first day I came in
Now here I am, a thousand stones away from him
To keep us free'
He said ‘Son, this is what it costs
When we finally found that cross
We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay
I remember Daddy brought me here when I was eight

I made it to Arlington
I can rest in peace, I'm one of the chosen ones
I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done
I'm on sacred ground, and I'm in the best of company
And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property

‘We're proud of your son'
And told my mom and dad
They folded up a flag
The man inside, he cried the day they brought me home
There's a big white house, sits on a hill, just up the road
For a job well done
Me and some other men
They gave me this plot of land
I thought I'd die an old man back in my hometown
I never thought that this is where I'd settle down

singing for the lonely

ich leg mich hin

under your spell standing (reprise)
