Johnny Reb
Capo:no capo
[Verse]
E A
You fought all the way Johnny Reb Johnny Reb
E A
You fought all the way Johnny Reb
E A
Saw you a marchin' with Robert E. Lee
E
You held your head a-high tryin' to win the victory
A E
You fought for your folks but you didn't die in vain
A
Even though you lost they speak highly of your name
[Chorus]
E A
'Cause you fought all the way Johnny Reb Johnny Reb
E A
You fought all the way Johnny Reb
[Verse]
E A
I heard your teeth chatter from the cold outside
E
Saw the bullets open up the wounds in your side
A E
I saw the young boys as they begin to fall
E A
You had tears in your eyes 'cause you couldn't help at all
E A
But you fought all the way Johnny Reb Johnny Reb
E A
You fought all the way Johnny Reb
E A
I saw General Lee raise the saber in his hand
B7
Heard the cannon's roar as you made your last stand
A E
You marched in the battle with the gray and the red
A
When the cannon's smoke cleared took days to count the dead
[Chorus]
E A
'Cause you fought all the way Johnny Reb Johnny Reb
E A
You fought all the way Johnny Reb
[Verse]
E A
When "Honest Abe" heard the news about your fall
E
The folks thought he'd call a great victory ball
A E
But he asked the band to play the song Dixie
A
For you Johnny Reb and all that you believed
[Chorus]
E A
'Cause you fought all the way Johnny Reb Johnny Reb
E A
Yeah you fought all the way Johnny Reb
