Tabbed by Eddie Perry, pretty easy song

  intro:  G5 C5  F5  C5    G5  C5  F5  C5
A5         F5          G5               C5
The day I shipped out they numbered a dozen
A5        F5           G5          C5
Upon my return were a hundred or so
         A5                 F5          G5            C5
From the coast and from the prairie I bet they keep coming
A5            F5        G5     C5
Add one more name from Ontario

    G5        C5             F5          C5
And carry me home down the highway of heroes
G5        C5                     A5     G5
People above with their flags flying low
G5         C5              F5          C5
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G5             C5              F5     C5   A5 F5 G5 C5    A5 F5 G5 C5
True patriot love  There was never more

A5               F5              G5          C5
I served with distinction    No visions of glory
A5               F5           G5        C5
I served without question of personal gain   
        A5     F5                 G5           C5
Seek no justification   It's not part of my story 
        A5           F5           G5          C5
And it  offers no comfort to the ones who remain

    G5         C5            F5          C5
And carry me home down the highway of heroes
G5       C5                A5          G5
People above with their flags flying low
G5         C5              F5           C5
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G5            C5               F5       C5  G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 C5 A5 G5  G5 C5 F5 C5 G5 C5 F5 C5
True patriot love  There was never more

  A5         F5               G5             C5
I took up my vocation  I was called by my nation
A5        F5            G5        C5
Without hesitation my answer I gave
             A5        F5              G5          C5
Now I am not wondering of things that I might've been
    A5        F5             G5        C5
I'm no consolation to the forgotten brave

     G5            C5        F5           C5
And carry me home down the highway of heroes
G5       C5                A5          G5
People above with their flags flying low
G5        C5               F5                C5
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G5            C5               F5        C5
True patriot love  There was never more 

G5           C5          F5                C5
Carry me home down the highway of heroes
G5          C5              A5          G5
People I love  with there hands down  low
G5        C5               F5                C5
Carry me softly down the highway of heroes
G5            C5               F5        C5
True patriot love  There was never more 
          F5     C5              F5      C5    (repeat and fade)
There was never more There was never more
