[Verse]
D F Best of days livin' a simple life C There's nowhere to go when
G
there's only one stop light
D His grandmother told him
F
"Don't you dare sign up
C G They'll ship you away to places

we ain't heard of
D F Get a degree, and maybe be a doctor C G Just ask your daddy, it won't matter

once they got ya
D F Lifetimes you could spend to

find out what she meant
C Her final dyin' breath,
G
this is what she said"
[Chorus]
D F "Long gone is the praise for

those who fought for us
C Ashes to ashes,
G
turns out steel still rusts
D F Stone carved in your name,

no one can really trust
C G Shoulder another soldier

they stole from us
D F Don't ever bend,

Don't ever crawl
C G Supposed to stand and never fall D F Long gone is the praise for

those who fought for us
C Ashes to ashes,
G
turns out steel still rusts"
D F C Ashes to ashes and dust to dust G And steel still rusts D F C G Ashes to ashes and dust to dust [Verse]
D F A third of his life off in a foreign land C Thanks for your service,
G
sincerely, Uncle Sam
D F Lost the best of friends

he'd ever known
C G And no line of welcome signs once

he got back home
D F He got a job, a doorman at a dive bar C G Became a bodyguard,

protecting famous rock stars
D F Lost count of the times

he's been around the world
C Promised grandmama
G
he'd never lose these words
[Chorus]
D F "Long gone is the praise for

those who fought for us
C G Ashes to ashes, turns out

steel still rusts
D F Stone carved in your name,

no one can really trust
C G Shoulder another soldier

they stole from us
D F Don't ever bend, don't ever crawl C G Supposed to stand and never fall D F Long gone is the praise for those

who fought for us
C G Ashes to ashes, turns out

steel still rusts"
D F C Ashes to ashes and dust to dust G And steel still rusts D F C Ashes to ashes and dust to dust G And dust to dust [Solo]

D F Forever feel the wounds

that never heal
C When fallen friends are
G
now a line of

crosses in a field
[Chorus]
D F Long gone is the praise for those

who fought for us
C G Ashes to ashes, turns out

steel still rusts (Steel still rusts)
D F Stone carved in your name,

no one can really trust
C G Shoulder another soldier

they stole from us
D F Don't ever bend,

don't ever crawl
C G Supposed to stand and

never fall (And never fall)
D F Long gone is the praise for those

who fought for us
C Ashes to ashes,
G
turns out steel still rusts
D F C Ashes to ashes and dust to dust G And steel still rusts

(Steel still rusts)
D F C Ashes to ashes and dust to dust G D And steel still rusts
