To me the tattoo of a swallow means that you have gotten your freedom. Its a sign of respect, loyalty, pride and trust. Also, music is a big part of my life and it symbolizes rock. The story goes that in the olden days, a sailor would get a set of swallows or sparrows on its chest and if he\she drowned, the swallow would come down and lift his soul to the heavens. It means you'll always be okay, its like a guardian angel.

What does it mean for a guy to get a swallow tattooed on his chest?

if u ask me, it means nothing. Tattoos are usually symbols of something. As long as you feel comfortable with the tattoo it shouldn't matter. Remeber though, tattoos are for life unless you want to get it lasered off which gets expensive. It doesn't mean your "gay" if that's what u were asking.
