Marching Through Georgia chords
Henry Clay Work

G+G                  C majorC      G+G
Bring the good ol' Bugle boys, we'll sing another song
                A7A7        D7D7
Sing it with a spirit that will start the world along
G+G        C majorC        G+G   C majorC    G+G
Sing it like we used to sing it fifty thousand strong,
D MajorD               G+G
while we were marching through Georgia

          C majorC       G+G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
          D MajorD
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G+G       C majorC      G+G       B7B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D MajorD       D7D7        G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

G+G                 C majorC        G+G
How the darkeys shouted when they heard the joyful sound
                 A7A7     D7D7
How the turkeys gobbled which our commissary found
G+G       C majorC       G+G    C majorC    G+G
How the sweet potatoes even started from the ground,
D MajorD               G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

          C majorC       G+G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
          D MajorD
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G+G       C majorC      G+G       B7B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D MajorD       D7D7        G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

G+G                C majorC        G+G
Yes and there were Union men who wept with joyful tears
                    A7A7      D7D7
When they saw the honored flag they had not seen for years
G+G         C majorC         G+G    C majorC    G+G
Hardly could they be restrained from breaking forth in cheers,
D MajorD               G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

          C majorC       G+G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
          D MajorD
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G+G       C majorC      G+G       B7B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D MajorD       D7D7        G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

 G+G                 C majorC       G+G
"Sherman's dashing Yankee boys will never make the coast!"
               A7A7       D7D7
So the saucy rebels said and 'twas a handsome boast
G+G      C majorC        G+G   C majorC    G+G
Had they not forgot, alas! to reckon with the host,
D MajorD               G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

          C majorC       G+G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
          D MajorD
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G+G       C majorC      G+G       B7B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D MajorD       D7D7        G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

G+G               C majorC        G+G
So we made a thoroughfare for freedom and her train,
                A7A7       D7D7
sixty miles of latitude, three hundred to the main
G+G      C majorC        G+G    C majorC   G+G
Treason fled before us, for resistance was in vain,
D MajorD               G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.

          C majorC       G+G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
          D MajorD
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G+G       C majorC      G+G       B7B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D MajorD       D7D7        G+G
while we were marching through Georgia.
