Story Behind The Song
This song tells a story about Jimmy and veterans like him who suffer from PTSD resulting from undeclared wars we send our men and women to fight.
When we commit our men and women to fight for others we as a nation should give them our full support, and if we don't intend to do that I believe we should stay home.

Lyrics
A Touch of Some Amazing Grace ©2017 Tony Annunziata annunzia@bellsouth.net
Vs1
Jimmy don't laugh he never cries too scared to live afraid to die
Got stuck between Iraq and a bad place he needs a touch of some amazing grace
Vs2
Jim went to war and killed a man then got a medal from Uncle Sam
Yet all he remembers is death's ugly face he needs a touch of some amazing grace
Chorus
Jim thought if he got out alive life would surely change but he still carries his old scars and a never
ending pain
Vs3
Jimmy's like me without the rust when I was young I shared his trust
We all believed we'd free the world of hate we need a touch of some amazing grace
Chorus
We thought if we got out alive life would surely change but we still carry our old scars and a never
ending pain
Vs 4
Hey people, don't shade your eyes war's gonna hurt we live in dire times when peace don't work
This world it feels like it's about to shake we need a touch of some amazing grace
We need a touch of some amazing grace
We need a touch of some amazing grace
