Lyrics:
They commandeer a corner table
At our smalltown diner
Just five or six old men
Throwing out corny old one liners..
They pat the heads of children, give friendly nods to strangers..
They sure seem quick to laugh, makes you think they're slow to anger
Those guys were frontline brothers,
Their lives depended on each other
They were soldiers long before they were men..
Yeah the ones that somehow survived
Came home went on to build their lives
Never charging us a penny for the debt we owe to them..but
You can almost smell the gun smoke in the foxhole that they shared
On the days they raise their coffees, and toast the empty chair..
Aww..
They'll ask you where you're from
What you do and what you've done...but
Don't go thinkin' they're all talk, cause
You wouldn't wanna piss them off...
Those guys were frontline brothers,
Their lives depended on each other
They were soldiers long before they were men..
Yeah the ones that somehow survived
Came home went on to build their lives
Never charging us a penny for the debt we owe to them..but
You can almost smell the gun smoke in the foxhole that they shared
On the days they raise their coffees, and toast the empty chair
They'll tell you anything you wanna know..but
There's one place they just won't go...cause
They don't want to ruin our dreams
By telling us the things they've seen...
Those guys were frontline brothers,
Their lives depended on each other
They were soldiers long before they were men..
Yeah the ones that somehow survived
Came home went on to build their lives

My dad is in this video. I cannot thank Trace and his team enough for putting this together. As hard as it was to see his picture, I know he would have been shocked and pleased that his service was recognized. When he came home from Korea he was treated very badly by some of the public so he kept his service to himself for many years. He slowly started to speak about it a little at a time as we got older. We always told him we were very proud of him and we were grateful for his service. He would have been touched by this recognition. To all who have served or are currently serving: thank you! To the families with loved ones in this video and to any family who has lost loved ones, we feel your pain. I pray The Lord will show His mercy to all of us with broken hearts.
Which one is your dad?
We wouldn’t have this country if it weren’t for men like your dad.
I just found this song congratulations, I was sitting here thinking wow my dad did allot and he might not be here much longer. Vietnam veteran 1968 to69 71to 72
GOD' Bless You Dad and your whole Family in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen Please know that You and Your family are Not alone!!! my Dad passed away in 2023, He was a U.S. Veteran.
Thank you for your service. Y’all don’t get enough credit for what y’all do while we are gone.
I can't tell you what this song means to me, 23yrs of active service and everyone of your songs about the military are just amazing, thank you
Thank you for your service!
Thank you so very much for your service. Ya'll can ever be repaid for your service
Sacrifice and all you missed out on back home. Love always from an Army Wife
Appreciate your service. Thank you. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you sir for your service in the military
Thank YOU Patrick for keeping me safe.
God bless you.
🇺🇲🙏🏼🇺🇲
My wife was confused because I set a place for my Dad who had recently passed away. 23 years of service. She went to pick it up and I simply said "no"... later she said she had never seen that look in my eyes before. It may not be the exact definition of why we set an empty chair but it made me feel better and closer to Dad. Miss you Dad, keeping your memories alive as long as I live.
Thanks Trace. Not many understand what the empty chair is about and why we always set it at functions. Thanks for helping our wounded warriors too.
A sad part of military etiquette is honoring service members who have fallen in the line of duty.
Remembering them honors their sacrifice and that of their families. It also underscores the
importance of the commitment to duty made by the living.
One beautiful, thoughtful way to honor those who have died is a Fallen Soldier Table.
Each element on the table symbolizes
something specific.
Table: a table set for one is small symbolizing the frailty of one isolated prisoner. The table is
round to represent everlasting concern on the part of the survivors for their missing loved ones.
The tablecloth: the tablecloth is white symbolizing purity of their intentions to respond to their
country’s call to arms.
A single rose: a single rose in a vase signifies the blood that many have shed in sacrifice to
ensure the freedom of our beloved United States of America.
This rose also reminds us of our beloved family and friends or our missing comrades who keep the faith, while awaiting their return.
Yellow ribbon: the yellow ribbon around the vase represents the yellow ribbon worn on the lapels of the thousands who demand with unyielding determination a proper accounting of our comrades who are not among us tonight.
A slice of lemon: the slice of lemon on a bread plate represents the bitter fate of the missing.
Salt: the salt sprinkled on the bread plate symbolizes of the countless fallen tears of families as they wait.
Inverted glass: this glass inverted on the table represents the fact that the missing and fallen cannot partake of the food and drink set at the table.
The Bible: the Bible represents the spiritual strength and faith to sustain those lost from our country.
A lit candle: the lit candle is reminiscent of the light of hope which lives in our hearts to
illuminate their way home, away from their captors, to open the arms of a grateful nation.
Empty chair: the empty chair represents the missing and fallen aren’t present.
You owe them everything and keep you save
Thanks to each and everyone of the veterans, alive and gone. Much respect.
Thanks for the knowledge
Thank you for your great music and videos from a wounded OIF veteran, you tell everyone what we want to tell them without going through it all in our memories again.
May those who lost their lives during the botched Afghanistan withdraw find eternal peace
Amen!! That’s my prayer. 🙏🏼
As a disabled veteran I want to stand and salute with tears in my eyes. I've lost a few. Tyvm Trace for beautiful heart-rending songs for the fallen. This also portrays our civilian family and friends. Remember to set an "empty seat" for the lost loved ones for Thanksgiving. Bless you all.
Thank you for your service 🙏.
Welcome home brother, I miss some of my fellow brothers also.
@@stevesmith7164 11 years sister .. Steve welcome home too brother
Thank you for your service and sacrifices!
Marine and Army vet here so this song really hits home.
Every servicemember that dies in action should be posthumously promoted to the next grade. This would help the wife and kids.
Shame on whoever gave this song a thumbs down
There is a scam group from China send me message by using Trace Adkins’ name.
My uncle who was a Vietnam Vet, was murdered May 13 by a man who was high and crossed the double yellow line into my uncle's motorcycle. He WAS NOT ARRESTED AND HAS YET TO BE CHARGED FOR MY UNCLE'S MURDER! I support our troops and hope that any other families of such get better treatment than my uncle's! RIP Wayne Berry. You are missed! For all the other vets out there, Without you, we would not have the freedoms we do! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE!
Rest in peace Uncle wayne!
To all the veterans out there, thank you for your service! And to those who aren't here anymore, thank you for your service and sacrifice!
Thank you for your gratitude. It is my honor to serve.
/R
I gotta admit Trace has got the tears running down my face. My Dad lost his big brother, 29 year old Lt. Col. Robert L. Wolverton on D-Day June 6, 1944. My Mom said that he was Never again the same man! GOD Bless you Uncle Bob, and Dad, I Hope that you are in Heaven Together!❤
I love this, I salute our military men and women, active, vets and more so the ones that gave all.

There are other people that have come across this also. Thank you for sharing have a blessed and safe weekend ❤️
@@shelly2599 I really don't understand why nobody handle this.
Last year there were more than 30 US country singers and two famous British singer who wrote to me.
After I chatted with the first one on Hangouts, I had known they are from a scam group from China,
and I do believe they want to help Biden and Democratic Party to make a profit.
I complained about that first one's English, he said he can use translate software to write. (what kind of logic?)
And after that, he started to use perfect Simplified Chinese to chat.
I didn't know that such a perfect translation software exists at all. His Simplified Chinese was just as of a native speaker's.
The second person could not answer any question about country music.
And the third one is the stupidest, I asked him to write down ""Hi, Gianni, I am Luka"" on a paper, and shoot a picture with his face.
He did it, but the picture is fake, although he photoshopped the photos perfectly, the name of the star is Luke, not Luka.
How is it possible, that a country singer doesn't know his name.
@@shelly2599 Unfortunately, most of them are bad guys, and they listen to China government attacking us from time to time.
After the COVID-19 broke out, they spread fake news on the Internet every day, and also bought government officials from our opposition parties,
forcing our government to buy their expired vaccines! They have done a lot of evil things beyond you can image!
Very sorry for my bad English and tell you those sad things. Thanks a lot for your nice words and kind wishes.
I put actual efforts into thanking each and every one for their service, even of it makes me look like an idiot or it's embarrassing, because that's the right thing to do
The line "they were soldiers long before they were men," fits right in with naim. Those boys were only 18 or 19. Not old enough to vote, but young enough to die for the USA.
That line dug in to me to. So accurate.
My dad lied about his age for Nam... he was 16
@ Bonita Adam's My Uncle did the same. He was delivering artillery to the front line when he should have been in High School.

This song hits home for me because I swear it feels like just yesterday when my grandpa and his 82nd airborne buddies and friends and family sat down at his bbq and saluted the empty chairs 🇺🇸🇻🇮
Many years have gone by since Vietnam. I moved back to a small town about 10 years back, and was encouraged to join the Legion. The first time I walked into the hall, I walked past a table setup with a single chair. A place was set for a meal and a candle was burning. The area was roped off with a velvet rope and a "Reserved" sign hanging on it. When I saw that setting I nearly fell to the floor. I knew in my heart what it was for. Every Memorial Day I go to the wall to say 'hello' again to those I know, and to meet others who shared in that time. Still every time I see that setting in the hall, I have to stop, lay my hand on the table, and silently say "thanks". G-d allowed me to come home. They were more privileged in that they got to leave this world a hero and arrive at the next one as a hero. I am forever grateful to them for their sacrifice.
Thank you for sharing this story. God bless you.
🇺🇲🙏🇺🇲
I'm tearing up. I'll never know what our great military members went through. Thank you for your service!

Another great tune! My daddy was 101st Airborne during WW 2. He was gravely injured in the Battle of the Bulge. When I was 12, I asked him how he got the big scar which was a result of a horrible tree burst on January 10th 1945. He said he would do it all over again and he was in hospital for over a yr.. We never spoke of it again and I didn't notice the scar anymore. For all veterans, thank you for your sacrifice. A big thank you to their partners too. Great song Trace!
respect and admiration sent out to you.
a ww2 hero he was
Some gave all for our freedom
As a military widow and soon to be military mom, I thank you with all of my heart for this beautiful and heartfelt song. God Bless and many thanks to those who Served, those who continue to serve and those about to serve. No amount of thanks is ever enough.

Those songs that Trace sings about the military are heart felt. I served in the US Navy 73-77. I can’t thank him enough for these songs especially Arlington. Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Thank you Trace.
Thank You for Your Service! 💚
Thank you to all our military men and women 💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏🙏 God bless you and your families ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
God understands our anger and he loves us anyway...I lost my youngest son Tommy, in 2005..even though I did everything that the Holy Spirit led me to do..we still lost our son..I was angry with God, but he never left my side..I know I will see my son again in heaven, and we will walk the streets of gold together, forever... Jesus is the prize, and my son is the icing on the cake..I love you Lord Jesus, and God the father, and God the Holy Spirit. 💕💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏

I can't imagine why anyone at all would give a "thumbs down" to a song like this. They are heartless. Once again, Mr. Adkins, you knocked it out of the park. God Bless all who gave all. I thank them a million times. And I thank God for the ones who made it home.
Thanks
I made it home

In America we cherish our fallen and those who put themselves forward to defend us against the world.. freedom always comes at a cost.

I have been fortunate to see Trace Adkins twice in small venues. I was so close to the stage I could have reached out and touched him! What an awesome voice! When he sings you not only hear his voice, you feel the love and respect he has for our brave men and women in uniform♡ Each time I hear "Arlington" I think of two things. First, I think of all the brave souls buried there. Second, I think of how this hallowed ground came to be. During the Civil War the Union army took over the property of Gen. Robert E. Lee. This is what we know as Arlington cemetary. Union General Montgomery Miegs was in charge of this endeavor. He was a friend of Gen. Lee before the war. He was angered by the fact that Lee chose to lead the Confederacy. He was determined that none of the Lee's should ever live at Arlington again. He had bodies buried in Mrs. Lee's rose garden! None of the Lee's lived there after the war. Sadly one of the young soldiers buried at Arlington was the son of Gen. Miegs. Gen. Lee's 3 sons and 1 nephew survived the bloody battles. Many on both sides survived physically but carried the horror of the war with them the rest of their lives. Norma Jean Morrissey. Lover of History☆☆☆
@Trace adkins ♪ You are a true patriot!☆☆Your song "Arlington" makes me feel the love and devotion each of those resting there had for our great nation. Each one had a special story to tell, to share with family, friends and all who care to listen. Even those who are "unknown" to us are known & loved by our Heavenly Father. As a student of the Civil War I know that many who died were sadly never identified. Some wrote their names & other info. on paper and pinned it to their uniforms. Sadly, some couldn't read or write! It wasn't until WW I that our men had "dog tags". Known or unknown, each person at Arlington deserves love and respect from every American.☆☆☆☆ Norma J. Morrissey R.N. Student of History
@Trace adkins ♪ Not sure why you want to chat with me. I would like to talk with you. If it's about history or music, I'd love it! I truly love history especially about the Civil War. I have been studying for several years but still feel that there is so much to learn. Did you know that women disguised as men fought in the armies of both sides? Several even wrote interesting memoirs like "Loretta Velasque,z" or Lt. Harry Buford as she was known to Confederate army!☆ Look forward to talking with you. Norma Jean Morrissey.

Our Troops lost their lives because of War. God 🙏🙏🙏 bless their Families and friends get through it. So let's salute to Our Troops who has lost their lives. And the ones still Living.
Thanks

I wish I could like more than once. Amazing, touching, and gripping. I smiled and actually got misty. The only Trace Adkins song I like more than this is “Arlington”. Given I like most of Mr. Adkins music, that is saying something.
Most beautiful song and video. Thank you all for giving all for our freedom. God bless you all!!!!!

RIP to all the women and men that never made it back to their families ❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
This past Memorial Day, I cannot help but think of my wife's family - both my wife's mother and father lost a brother during WW2. We owe SO MUCH to those sacrifices, made before we were born. Her mother's parents were never the same afterwards. Being European immigrants to the US themselves after WW1, they lost their only son who volunteered to defend the US in WW2, killed just a month before the war's end in Europe.
I had a former coworker, who again, as an 'only male child' European immigrant after WW2, could have claimed an exemption to the VietNam draft, but not only after serving his initial infantry tour, VOLUNTEERED for a second tour as a Huey door gunner... Yes, he has the bullet scars, but those are scars he is PROUD of, for defending his adopted country.
I love Trace Adkins. Super in concert. An American Patriot. I served 29.5 years in the Marine Corps. My best friend was KIA in Iraq on his birthday 14 September 2004.
Thank you for your service Mark. For keeping America safe. 🇺🇲🙏🏼🇺🇲
@@DawnNY Best years ever - I’d go again in a heartbeat.
God Bless each and every one of our Vet's!!!
On today of all days, as we should on everyday, let us remember in our prayers the brave men and women who sacrificed everything so that we might have a chance of a better life. Let us never forget them.

I have one set outside for my dad, navy, then dod. To all who served and still serves. I salute you.
I want to thank every veteran for serving this great country. I also want to mention that when i was 17 or 18 I did sign up to serve in Marine corps but when I took the ASVAB test I failed I think I did okay on most of it but it was my math that kept me from getting in there was math stuff in there that I didn't know. So if I passed it I would have gone to Bootcamp I was that close I all had to do was pass physical and I was in but like i said earlier I failed miserably in the math section on the test. It was math stuff like trigonometry and some geometry that I didn't know but the other math was easy
I love everything you do for the Military, thanks for being you!
Indeed I love everthing he did for the military. God will surely bless him and his family. Hope you are doing good Debra
Debra he tried so much
@Trace adkins yvw
What do you mean he tried?
Yes his songs give power to the weak to continue for better days thank you sir !!!
Thank you Trace! Wonderful tribute song to our Men and women of our military.
Thanks for the song Trace! Just an old retired Army Master Sergeant here with 6 combat tours. God bless my brothers that didn't make it home, I miss you guys!
Thanks for your love and support ❤️
As a man who never was in the service I solute all that severed. Because I was not able to serve, I've shed many tear for all those men that served. Thank you
Trace Adkins, this song is amazing. It hits me close because as a military child I have to deal with deployments and worrying that my dad will stay safe. Thank you for such a beautiful song. This is the perfect song for Memorial Day.
Hi Cristian, I know how you feel. I'm a military daughter, military wife and now the proud mom of military sons, two in the Air Force, ( both overseas), and one who works on nuclear engines for the Navy. My entire life has been a constant worry and heartache with many, many goodbyes. It's a life not many understand or support but I stand proud for our flag and for the 1% who defend it. Trace always makes me cry with his songs and love for our men and women in uniform. He understands and he's grateful and it shows. God bless him! 🇺🇸🦅
Went looking for the onions my wife must have been chopping. Then realized, my gratitude to those who sacrificed all is an emotion not needing suppressed. Thank you to our military and all their heroes.
There is a scam group from China send me message by using Trace Adkins’ name.
Please kindly check.
@@giannishen Thanks for the info.!
@@normajeanmorrissey2903 It's nothing!
Last year there were more than 30 US country singers and two British singer wrote to me during the US presidential election.
After I chatted with the first one on Hangouts, I had known they are from a scam group from China,
and I do believe most of them want to help Biden and Democratic Party to make a profit.
I complained about that first one's English, he said he can use translate software to write. (what kind of logic?)
And after that, he started to use perfect Simplified Chinese to chat.
I didn't know that such a perfect translation software exists at all. His Simplified Chinese was just as of a native speaker's.
After the US presidential election, now they continue to deceive people to buy Bitcoin from them!
Can't explain how much this song hits home, I miss my BROTHERS and SISTERS every day! I make the attempt to keep in contact with the ones who made it back. Always try to keep in touch one day they'll be gone, and you'll regret not staying in touch. Don't ever just assume they are good and well; they may just be keeping a persona going and then they're gone. I love you ALL and keep on FIGHTING don't let life keep you down, everyone has experienced something in their lives, it's up to you to allow the negative to take over you.
Something we can all do to honor our deceased vets, and show their loved ones we care. There is a tradition of coins left on vet gravestones. If you leave a penny it means you visited: a nickel is you trained together at boot camp: dime is that you served together: quarter is you were there when the vet died. At most vet cemeteries the coins are gathered monthly then donated to vet programs. It's a way to honor the living and deceased heroes.
What a beautiful tribute to all of our soldiers and their family! God Bless The USA 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤️💙🤍🌊
