[Verse]
G#m F#
My daddy raised me to be right
G#m
To fight for this land till the day I die
F#
Fighting for the promise of a golden dream
G#m
Underneath the shadow of the cedar trees
G#m F#
Marched from Richmond in the July sun
G#m
Blisters on my feet and a bruise from my gun
F#
Now December's wrath of bitter cold
G#m
Is sending me shivers to the core of my soul
[PreChorus]
F#
And they say they're coming after Christmas day
G#m
We'll line up our boys in the suits of gray
F#
Dig in the dirt and hold our ground
D#m7
Praying for the angels now
[Chorus]
G#m
The was blood in the cotton fields
C#
Bullet holes in the wagon wheels
G#m
Blood in the cotton fields
C#
Smoke rising from the cannon steel
D#m7
Tell me where is heaven, 'cause hell is real
G#m C# G#m
There was blood in the cotton fields
[Verse]
G#m F#
We woke the morning of the 31st
G#m
We drank whiskey to quench our thirst
F#
Came up on the side of the Union line
G#m
Caught them Yankees in a big surprise
[PreChorus]
F#
We pushed them back in the rocks by ten
G#m
C# murderous charge in the slaughter pen
F#
We tried and tried, again and again
D#m7
But the reign of fire wouldn't end
[Chorus]
G#m
The was blood in the cotton fields
C#
Bullet holes in the wagon wheels
G#m
Blood in the cotton fields
C#
Smoke rising from the cannon steel
D#m7
Tell me where is heaven, 'cause hell is real
G#m C# G#m
There was blood in the cotton fields

[Verse]
G#m F#
By the afternoon of the 2nd day
G#m
We only had one more charge to take
F#
Charging up the side of McFadden's Ford
G#m
Fifty-seven cannons aimed at our swords
[PreChorus]
F#
1800 men fell to the ground
G#m
In less than an hour we had gone down
F#
Gone up in a big smoke cloud
D#m7
And that's where my body lay now
[Chorus]
G#m
The was blood in the cotton fields
C#
Bullet holes in the wagon wheels
G#m
Blood in the cotton fields
C#
Smoke rising from the cannon steel
D#m7
Tell me where is heaven, 'cause hell is real
G#m C# G#m C#
There was blood in the cotton, blood in the cotton
G#m C# G#m
Blood in the cotton fields
