[Verse]
Dm C
My daddy raised me to be right
Dm
To fight for this land till the day I die
C
Fighting for the promise of a golden dream
Dm
Underneath the shadow of the cedar trees
Dm C
Marched from Richmond in the July sun
Dm
Blisters on my feet and a bruise from my gun
C
Now December's wrath of bitter cold
Dm
Is sending me shivers to the core of my soul
[PreChorus]
C
And they say they're coming after Christmas day
Dm
We'll line up our boys in the suits of gray
C
Dig in the dirt and hold our ground
Am7
Praying for the angels now
[Chorus]
Dm
The was blood in the cotton fields
G
Bullet holes in the wagon wheels
Dm
Blood in the cotton fields
G
Smoke rising from the cannon steel
Am7
Tell me where is heaven, 'cause hell is real
Dm G Dm
There was blood in the cotton fields
[Verse]
Dm C
We woke the morning of the 31st
Dm
We drank whiskey to quench our thirst
C
Came up on the side of the Union line
Dm
Caught them Yankees in a big surprise
[PreChorus]
C
We pushed them back in the rocks by ten
Dm
G murderous charge in the slaughter pen
C
We tried and tried, again and again
Am7
But the reign of fire wouldn't end
[Chorus]
Dm
The was blood in the cotton fields
G
Bullet holes in the wagon wheels
Dm
Blood in the cotton fields
G
Smoke rising from the cannon steel
Am7
Tell me where is heaven, 'cause hell is real
Dm G Dm
There was blood in the cotton fields

[Verse]
Dm C
By the afternoon of the 2nd day
Dm
We only had one more charge to take
C
Charging up the side of McFadden's Ford
Dm
Fifty-seven cannons aimed at our swords
[PreChorus]
C
1800 men fell to the ground
Dm
In less than an hour we had gone down
C
Gone up in a big smoke cloud
Am7
And that's where my body lay now
[Chorus]
Dm
The was blood in the cotton fields
G
Bullet holes in the wagon wheels
Dm
Blood in the cotton fields
G
Smoke rising from the cannon steel
Am7
Tell me where is heaven, 'cause hell is real
Dm G Dm G
There was blood in the cotton, blood in the cotton
Dm G Dm
Blood in the cotton fields
