LEAD – (VERSE 1) Verse 2: D A7 Stars of gold on the old flag tonight D While they fight for the cause that is right D7 G E7 They will keep that flag on high for the ones who had to die A7 D Stars of gold on the old flag tonight Verse 3: D A7 Silver dew on the bluegrass tonight D While I pray you'll come safe through the fight D7 G E7 Close your eyes and think of me and my darling you will see A7 D Silver dew on the bluegrass tonight Tag: D D7 G E7 They will keep that flag on high for the ones who had to die A7 D Stars of gold on the old flag tonight.
