Capo:7th fret
G D
Dear sweet Suzanne,
Em7 C
well I know its been some time
G D
since I've got the chance to write you
Em7 C
to let you know I'm doin fine
G D
Today we finally stopped
Em7 C
to let our horses have a break
G D
With the yankees right behind us
Em7 C
only God knows what lies in our fate
G D Em7 C
The cannon balls are flyin over my head
G D Em7 C
As I fight here on this battlefield that's soaked in blood red
G D Em7 C
The horses pull away with another load of my dead friends
G D Em7 C
They're headed into town so they can ship em home again
G D Em7 C
They're finally goin home but not on there own two feet
G D Em7 C
They're on a wagon in a wooden box goin to a heart broke family
G D Em7 C
And I pray every night that that won't be me
G D Em7 C
We're on a battlefield of broken souls dear Lord can't You see
G D Em7 C
It ain't about the north and South or who wins the fight
G D Em7 C
It ain't about the blue and Gray we're the one's stuck here to die
G D Em7 C
Most of us stuck here to fight don't even own a slave
G D Em7 C
Lose our lives for some rich ol man who thinks he knows the way
G D Em7 C
He thinks the way into heaven is just by what you own
G D Em7 C
But all the horses cows and land can't go with you when you go
G D Em7 C
Dear sweet Suzanne well I know its been some time
G D Em7 C
Since I've got the chance to write you and let you know I'm doin fine
G D Em7 C
Just one last thing before I let you go
G D Em7 C D D
Well I hope this letter reaches you before the box carries me home
