Song about 9-11
911
Generally the songs I write are somewhere between folk, rock and country. Some of the songs are in one category or the other. If you listen to the song, as yo
I am not a performer, I am a songwriter. I am not a good singer and I learn to play instruments just well enough to record the songs I write. But I enjoy the craft of songwriting and the recording process. I write simple songs. I like writing story songs. Feedback is always welcomed. Hope you enjoy something here.

Story behind the song
9-11 impacted me as well as the nation. I wrote the words about a month after. The music came later. I was a long time before I could sing it all the way through
Lyrics
Flight 93 They boarded the plane like any other flight But things went wrong and nothing went right They had just reach altitude when the deal went down Someone hijacked the plane and turned it around Something was different this was something new The passengers and crew didnt know what to do The captain wasnt flying the plane This was some a new kind of game A cell phone call brought some shocking news It wasnt just them, there was more left to lose A decision made and action was taken Leaving all of us really shaken Chorus What kind of courage does it take To stand and say hell no What kind of love does it take To die for those you dont know Scatter wreckage across a farmers field A symbol to all, they would not yield Who they saved we will never know But our pride for them will always grow A country stands proud with tears in their eyes Giving thanks to those who gave up their lives A heart felt thanks from the land of the free To the heroes of Flight 93 Chorus What kind of courage does it take To stand and say hell no What kind of love does it take To die for those you dont know A heart felt thanks from the land of the free To the heroes of Flight 93 2004 D. Liggett
