I'm Already Home Lyrics - Tim Mcgraw

(As performed on the 2007 Academy of Country Music Awards) 

You're reading this, my mama's sittin there 

Look's like I only got a one way ticket over here 

I sure wish I could give you one more kiss 

War was just a game we played when we were kids 

Well I'm layin down my gun and hanging up my boots 

I'm up here with God and we're both watching over you 

So lay me down 

In that open field out on the edge of town 

And know my soul 

Is where my mama always prayed that it would go 

And if you're reading this 

I'm already home

If you're reading this halfway around the world 

I won't be there to see the birth of our little girl 

I hope she looks like you 

I hope she fights like me 

And stands up for the innocent and the weak 

I'm layin down my gun and hanging up my boots 

Tell dad I don't regret that I followed in his shoes 

So lay me down 

In that open field out on the edge of town 

And know my soul 

Is where my mama always prayed that it would go 

And if you're reading this 

I'm already home 

If you're reading this, there's gonna come a day 

When you'll move on and find someone else, and that's ok 

Just remember this 

I'm in a better place 

Where soldiers live in peace and angels sing Amazing Grace 

So lay me down 

In that open field out on the edge of town 

And know my soul 

Is where my mama always prayed that it would go 

And if you're reading this 

If you're reading this... 

I'm already home
