Intro
Gm Am A# C Gm Dm A#
F Dm
My name is Dodge, but then you know that
A# F C
It's written on the chart there, at the foot end of the of the bed
F Dm
They think I'm blind, that I can't read it
A# F C
But I've read it, every word and every word it says is death
Dm A# F
So, confession, is that the reason that you came?
Dm A# C
Get it off my chest before I check out of the game
Dm A# F
Since you mention it, well, there's thirteen things I'll name
Gm A# C Dm A#
Thirteen crosses high above the cold Missouri waters
F Dm
August '49, North Montana
A# F C
The hottest day on record, the forest tinder dry
F Dm
Lightning strikes in the mountains
A# F C
I was crew chief at the jump base, I prepared the boys to fly
Dm A# F
Picked the drop zone, F47 comes in low
Dm A# C
Feel the tap upon your leg that tells you, "Go"
Dm A# F
See the circle of the fire down below
Gm A# C Dm A#
Fifteen of us dropped above the cold Missouri waters
F Dm
Gauged the fire, I'd seen bigger
A# F C
So I ordered them to side hill, we'd fight it from below
F Dm
We'd have our backs to the river
A# F C
We'd have it licked by morning, even if we took it slow
Dm A# F
But the fire crowned, jumped the valley just ahead
Dm A# C
There was no way down, headed for the ridge instead
Dm A# F
Too big to fight it, we'd have to fight that slope instead
Gm A# C Dm A#
Flames one step behind, above the cold Missouri waters
F Dm
Sky had turned red, smoke was boiling
A# F C
Two hundred yards to safety, death was fifty yards behind
F Dm
I don't know why, I just thought it
A# F C
I struck a match to waist high grass, running out of time
Dm A# F
Tried to tell them, "Step into this fire I've set."
Dm A# C
"We can't make it, this is the only chance you'll get"
Dm A# F
But they cursed me, ran for the rocks above instead
Gm A# C Dm
I lay face down and prayed above the cold Missouri waters
INTERLUGA: Dm Em A# C
Aah, aah, aah, aah
C Gm Dm A#
Aah, aah, aah, aah
F Dm
Then when I rose like the phoenix
A# F C
In that world reduced to ashes, there were none, but two survived
F Dm
I stayed that night and one day after
A# F C
Carried bodies to the river, wondering how I stayed alive
Dm A# F
Thirteen stations of the cross to mark their fall
Dm A# C
I've had my say, I'll confess to nothing more
Dm A# F
I'll join them now, those that left me long before
Gm A# C Dm
Thirteen crosses high above the cold Missouri waters
Gm A# C Gm Am A# C
Gm Dm A#
Ooh, ooh, ooh
