[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [A] I served _
[C] _ _ _ [F] on [Am] the Danville [Dm]
train, _ [A] _ till [G] Stoneman's Calvary came, [F] and they tore [A] up the track [Dm] again.
_ _ [E] _ In the winter [F] of 65, _ [C] we were hungry, _ [Dm] just a valley of lies.
[Am] By May 10, [F] a ridge when it fell, [C] is a time I [Dm] remember oh [D] so _ _ well. _ _
[C] The time [F] they tore up our district [C] now, when [F] all the bells were ringing,
[G] _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ and [F] all the people were singing,
[C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [C] _ Like _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ [A] with my wife [C] in Tennessee, _ [F] when one day [A] she called [Dm] to me,
_ _ [A] _ said, [Am] there's your [C] quick, come and see, [F] there goes a [Dm] Robert E.
Lee.
Now [A] I don't mind [F] chopping wood, [C] and I don't care [Dm] if the money's all good,
[Am] you take what you need and [F] you leave the rest,
but [C] they should never [Dm] have taken the [D] very best. _ _ _ _
[G] The [C] night [F] that the wars were [G] set down, _ [D] when all the bells were ringing,
the [C] _ night [F] that no war [C] did stay down,
and all [F] the people were singing, [C] they went,
_ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [C] Like _ _ [F] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ [A] _ my [C] father lived for [Am] me, _
_ [F] I will [Em] work the [Dm] land, _
_ [Am] and like my brother [C] a poor old man, [F] who took [Em] a rebel [Dm] stand, _
he [Em] was just eight feet, [F] proud and brave, [C] but a Yankee, a lady [Dm] in his grave,
and [Em] I swear by the boy below [F] my feet, [C] you can't raise a cane back up,
when he's standing [D] behind. _ _ _ _ _
The night that [F] the wars were set [C] down, [F] when all the bells were ringing,
[C] the night that [F] no war did stay [C] down,
and [F] all the people were singing, [C] they went,
Na, na, na, [A] na, na, na. _
_ [D] Na, na, na, na, [F] na, na. _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[Bb] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ The [C] night that [F] the wars were [C] set down, [F] when all the bells were ringing,
[C] the night [F] that no war [C] did stay down,
_ and [F] all the people were singing, [C] they went.
Na, na, [Am] na, na, na, na.
