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