Intro
Cm Dm D# F Cm Gm D#
A# Gm
My name is Dodge, but then you know that
D# A# F
It's written on the chart there, at the foot end of the of the bed
A# Gm
They think I'm blind, that I can't read it
D# A# F
But I've read it, every word and every word it says is death
Gm D# A#
So, confession, is that the reason that you came?
Gm D# F
Get it off my chest before I check out of the game
Gm D# A#
Since you mention it, well, there's thirteen things I'll name
Cm D# F Gm D#
Thirteen crosses high above the cold Missouri waters
A# Gm
August '49, North Montana
D# A# F
The hottest day on record, the forest tinder dry
A# Gm
Lightning strikes in the mountains
D# A# F
I was crew chief at the jump base, I prepared the boys to fly
Gm D# A#
Picked the drop zone, A#47 comes in low
Gm D# F
Feel the tap upon your leg that tells you, "Go"
Gm D# A#
See the circle of the fire down below
Cm D# F Gm D#
Fifteen of us dropped above the cold Missouri waters
A# Gm
Gauged the fire, I'd seen bigger
D# A# F
So I ordered them to side hill, we'd fight it from below
A# Gm
We'd have our backs to the river
D# A# F
We'd have it licked by morning, even if we took it slow
Gm D# A#
But the fire crowned, jumped the valley just ahead
Gm D# F
There was no way down, headed for the ridge instead
Gm D# A#
Too big to fight it, we'd have to fight that slope instead
Cm D# F Gm D#
Flames one step behind, above the cold Missouri waters
A# Gm
Sky had turned red, smoke was boiling
D# A# F
Two hundred yards to safety, death was fifty yards behind
A# Gm
I don't know why, I just thought it
D# A# F
I struck a match to waist high grass, running out of time
Gm D# A#
Tried to tell them, "Step into this fire I've set."
Gm D# F
"We can't make it, this is the only chance you'll get"
Gm D# A#
But they cursed me, ran for the rocks above instead
Cm D# F Gm
I lay face down and prayed above the cold Missouri waters
INTERLUCD: Dm Em D# F
Aah, aah, aah, aah
F Cm Gm D#
Aah, aah, aah, aah
A# Gm
Then when I rose like the phoenix
D# A# F
In that world reduced to ashes, there were none, but two survived
A# Gm
I stayed that night and one day after
D# A# F
Carried bodies to the river, wondering how I stayed alive
Gm D# A#
Thirteen stations of the cross to mark their fall
Gm D# F
I've had my say, I'll confess to nothing more
Gm D# A#
I'll join them now, those that left me long before
Cm D# F Gm
Thirteen crosses high above the cold Missouri waters
Cm D# F Cm Dm D# F
Cm Gm D#
Ooh, ooh, ooh
