SEARCHING FOR A SOLDIER'S GRAVE
(Roy Acuff)

CHO: Somewhere here among these many thousands
Of Americans who all died true and brave,
That's where I know I'll find him resting.
So I'm here. I'm searching for his grave.

You ask me, stranger, why I made this journey.
Why cross three thousand miles of rolling waves?
Like many others, my darling was killed in action.
That's why I'm here. I'm searching for his grave. CHO.

When I come to the spot where he's sleeping,
I know it will cause more heartaches inside.
But I'll long to be by his side once more and tell him,
Tell him that I love him, and will until I die. CHO.
