Intro: G C D G
[Verso 1]
I was lookin through some old books,
Momma had stored away under the stairs,
I opened one up, a picture fell out,
a young man in dress blues stood there,
The first thing written, that I could
read, was the year nineteen and
forty-two,
He looked so familiar, guess he was
G D
headin to war, then I saw,
this is for you,
[Verso 2]
It was written in pencil there on the
back, but had been almost worn a-way,
It wasnt my dad, hed never served, I
wondered what he was thinkin that day,
Weeks went by, pictures still on my
mind, went to see my aunt over in the next
C
town,
She was my moms little sister, they
always talked, knew each others ups
and downs,
[Verso 3]
I took that picture to show it to her,
G
see if she knew who it might be,
When I put it in her hand, she smiled
so big, and a tear rolled down her
G
cheek,
Had to wait a bit before she could
speak, I could tell she was fighting
more tears,
Then the words finally came, a bit shaky
at first, so happy and then real clear,
[Verso 4]
This is your grandpa taken just before
he left, hes the one that you never
got to know,
The only picture your grandma, ever had,
and shed al-ways keep it so close,
He never came back from that beach
across the sea, she had nothing to hold
on to,
Just a black n white taken, with a
borrowed camera, with those words,
this is for you,
[Verso 5]
Well I guess I know now why he looks so
familiar, cause we do look a lot the
C
same,
Momma had told me all she knew about
him, I finally see where I got my
middle name,
The picture was lost before I was born,
but somehow it found its way through,
Aint it funny how sometimes years
Em D G
later, somethin saysThis is for you
C D G
