E A D A
[Verse 1]
E A D
He was just a blue-eyed Boston boy
A
His voice was low with pain.
E A D
I'll do your bidding comrade mine,
A
If I ride back again.
E A
But if you ride back and I am left
E
You'll do as much for me.
E A D
Mother you know, must hear the news
A
So write to her tenderly.
[Break]
E A D A
E A D
She's waiting at home like a patient saint
A
Her fond face pale with woe.
E A D
Her heart will be broken when I am gone
A
I'll see her soon, I know
E A
Just then the order came to charge
E
For an instant hand touched hand
E A D
They said "Aye" and away they rode
A
That brave and devoted band.

E A D A
[Verse 3]
E A D
Straight was the track to the top of the hill
A
The rebels they shot and shelled.
E A D
Plowed furrows of death through the toilling ranks
A
And guarded them as they fell
E A
There soon came a horrible dying yell
E
From heights that they could not gain
E A D
And those that doom and death had spared
A
Rode slowly back again.
[Break]
E A D A
[Verse 4]
E A D
But among the dead that were left on the hill
A
Was the boy with the curly hair
E A D
The tall dark man that rode by his side
A
Lay dead beside him there
E A
There's no one to write to the blue-eyed girl
E
The words that her lover had said
E A D
Momma, you know, awaits the news
A
And she'll only know he's dead.
