I loved this video on YouTube, so I wanted to tab it.. Im hoping ive done it justice..



Intro: , , , , , 

					     
You were almost sixteen when I came into the world.
			       			
Mom and Dad had you first then 3 more boys I'm the baby girl.
								
I sure have a lot to look up to in you, you're really smart and funny with a big heart too.
			      		          
After one year of college you knew what you had to do. 

					     
It's just like you wanting to help with the war.
				 
So you joined the army when I was only 4.
								
This time of year we talk of big plans but you're over seas in some distant land.
			      		      
You can't be here for Christmas, I don't understand. 




Chorus:
				
When are you coming home, Shaun?
	  	     
When are you coming home?!
					          
We lit up the house like we always do but it doesn't seem bright 'cause we can't have you.
				    
In my prayers I ask God to keep you safe.
			    
And I'm trying to be really brave.
			
Tell me that the fighting's through. 
     		
Come home!
               
I really miss you. 




2nd verse.. same as the 1st..
