lyrics

Hey man
I know you're leaving real soon
Sooner than we thought
I hope you're ready
I hope you know
How much you'll changed
And how much you'll grow

You've got 8 quick years to swallow your fears and
You're gonna make your grandpa proud
You'll serve your time away from state lines but
You've got your friends on your arm
You've got us on your arm

Hey man
I don't know if I told you but
You mean a lot to me
I remember when you were just 14 and you picked up your first guitar
And those times we sang songs in our cars
After you get back we'll hang at the bar and you'll always drink for free
Because you served your country

You've got 8 quick years to swallow your fears and
You're gonna make your grandpa proud
You'll serve your time away from state lines but
You've got your friends on your arm
You've got us on your arm

I know you're gonna be okay
26 seems so far away
I know you're gonna be okay
I know you're gonna be okay

You've got 8 quick years to swallow your fears and
You're gonna make your grandpa proud
You'll serve your time away from state lines but
You've got your friends on your arm
You've got us on your arm
You've got me on your arm

So look down
But keep your head up
So look down
But keep your head up
