Confederate Anthem - David Allan Coe

Verse 1:
  A augmentedA                E MajorE     A augmentedA
Oh, I'm a good old rebel, now that's just what I am,
  A augmentedA            E MajorE
And for this Yankee nation, I do not give a damn,
  D MajorD             A augmentedA
I'm glad I fought again' her, I only wish we'd won,
  A augmentedA             E MajorE       A augmentedA
I ain't asked any pardon for anything I've done ...

Verse 2:
  A augmentedA              E MajorE        A augmentedA
I hates the Yankee nation, and everything they do,
 A augmentedA            E MajorE
I hates the Declaration Of Independence too,
 D MajorD             A augmentedA
I hates the glorious Union, 'tis dripping with our blood,
 A augmentedA              E MajorE      A augmentedA
I hates the striped banner, I fit it all I could ...

Verse 3:
 A augmentedA              E MajorE         A augmentedA
I rode with Robert E. Lee for three years thereabout,
        A augmentedA          E MajorE
Got wounded in four places, and I starved at Point Lookout,
 D MajorD             A augmentedA
I cauched the rheumatism, a-camping in the snow,
   A augmentedA                  E MajorE         A augmentedA
But I killed a chance of Yankees, and I'd like to kill some more ...

Verse 4:
   A augmentedA              E MajorE         A augmentedA
Three hundred thousand Yankees is stiff in Southern dust,
  A augmentedA             E MajorE
We got three hundred thousand before they conquered us,
   D MajorD             A augmentedA
They died of Southern fever and Southern steel and shot,
 A augmentedA               E MajorE         A augmentedA
I wish there were three million, instead of what we got ...

Verse 5:
  A augmentedA                E MajorE    A augmentedA
I can't take up my musket, and fight 'em now no more,
  A augmentedA              E MajorE
But I ain't gonna love 'em, now that is certain sure,
  D MajorD             A augmentedA
And I don't want no pardon for what I was and am,
 A augmentedA            E MajorE          A augmentedA
I won't be reconstructed, and I do not give a damn ...

Verse 6:
  A augmentedA                E MajorE     A augmentedA
Oh, I'm a good old rebel, now that's just what I am,
A augmentedA            E MajorE
for this Yankee nation, I do not give a damn,
  D MajorD             A augmentedA
I'm glad I fought again' her, I only wish we'd won,
 A augmentedA              E MajorE       A augmentedA
I ain't asked any pardon, for anything I've done ...
 A augmentedA              E MajorE       A augmentedA
I ain't asked any pardon, for anything I've done.
