Arlington by Matt Fouch - Bass Singer

Official video of Matt Fouch's acoustic version cover of "Arlington"
Arlington is sung from the viewpoint of a soldier, killed in battle and buried at Arlington National Cemetery. This song was originally recorded by Trace Adkins. It was also recorded by Legacy Five. This is my acoustic solo version of the song.

Arlington 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
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 grand-dad 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 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 everytime I hear 21 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
