CAPO 2
INTRO:
EmI was there in the winter of D'64C
When we cDamped in the ice at BmNashville's doCors
ThreeG hundred miles our trDail had Emled
We Dbarely had time to bBmury our deCad
When the YCankees charged and the colors fDell
DOverton hill was a lBmiving heCll
When we Ccalled retreat it was almost Ddark
DI died with a grapeshot in my hEmeart
CSay aD prayer forEm peace
CFor every Gfallen soDn
CSet myD spiritEm free
CLet me lay Gdown my gDun
AmSweet mother Mary I'm so tCired
But I cCan't come home 'til the Dlast shot's Emfired
EmIn June of 1D94C4
DI waited in the blooBmd of Omaha's sChores
GTwenty-one and sDcared toEm death
DMy heart poundin' Bmin myC chest
CI almost made the first seaDwall
DWhen my friends turnBmed and sCaw me fall
I still Csmell the smoke, I can taste Dthe mud
DAs I lay there dying from a losEms of blood
CSay aD prayer forEm peace
CFor every Gfallen soDn
CSet myD spiritEm free
CLet me lay Gdown my gDun
AmSweet mother Mary I'm so tCired
But I cCan't come home 'til the Dlast shot's Emfired
bridge:
CI'm in the fields of Vietnam,
DThe mountains of Afghanistan
CAnd I'm still hopin', waitin', prayin'
DI did not die in vain
CSay aD prayer forEm peace
CFor every Gfallen soDn
CSet ouDr spiritEms free
CLet us lay Gdown our Dguns
AmSweet mother Mary we're sCo tired
But we Ccan't come home 'til the Dlast shot's Emfired
C'Til the last shot's fEmired C
[Choir:]
Say a prayer for peace (for peace)
For our daughters and our sons
Set our spirits free (set us free)
Let us lay down our guns
[Trace:]
Sweet mother Mary, we're so tired
But we can't come home
[Choir:]
No we can't come home
'Til the last shot's fired
