England Dan and John Ford Coley - Matthew
INTRO: A minorAm D MajorD A minorAm D MajorD
A minorAm C majorC FF
Matthew crossed the river on his horse
DmDm Bb majorBb G+G A minorAm
Said, "This bullet in my side is getting worse"
C majorC FF
Called in to fight without a choice
DmDm Bb majorBb
We were just too weak to move
G+G
We got nothing left to prove
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G A minorAm C majorC FF
And I, I, I just want to go home
G+G
Martha's alone
C majorC G+G A minorAm C majorC FF
And I, I, I just want to go home
E minorEm A minorAm D MajorD A minorAm D MajorD
I've been gone too long, too long
A minorAm C majorC FF
Fever started dragging Matthew down
DmDm Bb majorBb G+G
And I hope we find a doctor or a town
A minorAm C majorC FF
Today we left good people on the ground
DmDm Bb majorBb
They were just too weak to move
G+G
We got nothing left to prove
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G A minorAm C majorC FF
And I, I, I just want to go home
G+G
Martha's alone
C majorC G+G A minorAm C majorC FF
And I, I, I just want to go home
E minorEm A minorAm A augmentedA
I've been gone too long, too long
BRIDGE:
DmDm Bb majorBb
Well they hit us in the morning
FF C majorC G+G
And cannon balls made us all go down
DmDm Bb majorBb
They hit us in the morning
FF C majorC
And the cannon balls scared us half to death
E MajorE E7E7 A minorAm
Never felt so scared__
INTERLUDE: FF C majorC G+G A minorAm G+G FF C majorC G+G
A minorAm C majorC FF
I have seen all that I can stand
DmDm Bb majorBb G+G A minorAm
And the cotton's burning black throughout our land
C majorC FF
Had Matthew been a wiser man
DmDm Bb majorBb
We were just too weak to move
G+G
We got nothing left to prove
CHORUS:
