My Hand by Jay Buchanan
My Hand
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse]
Am E F C
If I ever get out of this prison alive,
F C
I'll run straight back to the war
F E
to join with my side.
Am E
But the voices that I hear
F C
through the walls late at night.
F C
Tell the tales of the brave ones
F E
who fought and who died.
F C
My sunsets our sliver
Dm E
of light upon my wall
F C Dm E
10 feet above my head, but I don't see the sun at all.
[Chorus]
Am
That's my hand,
F
that's my hand.
C
Holding my flag
Dm E
as high as I can.
Am
That's my hand,
F
that's my hand.
C
Let the stripes on my shoulder
Dm Am
explain who I am.
[Verse]
Am E F C
And if I ever get out of this war alive,
F C
I'll run straight back to my farm
F E
to my children and my wife.
Am E
She looks out on the land
F C
that our crops used to fill,
F C
and she remembers a young man
F E
behind the horse in the field.
F C
She's probably chopping wood
Dm E
before the leaves begin to fall.
F C Dm E
She looks out every day, but she don't see her man at all.
[Chorus]
Am
That's my hand,
F
that's my hand.
C
Holding my flag
Dm E
as high as I can.
Am
That's my hand,
F
that's my hand.
C
Let the laughter of my children
Dm Am
explain who I am.
[Verse]
Am E F C
And if I never get out of this world alive,
F C
I want my family to be with me
F E
holding hands at my bedside.
Am E
And if I have any last words,
F C
I hope that they would come out right.
F C
Words like don't delay your love,
F E
don't be afraid to waste your time.
F C
When the sunset is the last one
Dm E
I know I'll ever see,
F C
does the sacrifice of my generation
Dm E
die along with me?
[Chorus]
Am
That's my hand,
F
that's my hand.
C
Holding my flag
Dm E
as high as I can.
Am
That's my hand,
F
that's my hand.
C
Let the words on my tombstone
Dm Am
explain who I am.
