Guitar chords with lyrics

Fm                                      G
Your mother died night you were born
G   Fm                       F
Her name you never knew
F       Fm                G                     C
Look away, look away nothing to lose

Fm                        G
Left East Tennessee at fourteen
Fm                         F
Wandered to the West
F          Fm              G                    C
Look away,look away born into death

G                         C                       Fm
You fought the sailors in New Orleans
G                          C                                     Fm
You worked the flatboats and walked the streets
G               C            Fm
Hit Nacogdoches in 49
G                                     C                         Fm
And there you saw the devil the very first time



C                        F
Kid don’t you know me?
C                                   F
We are the last of the true
F                 G       C
Drink up! Drink up!
F                 G        C
Drink up! Drink up!
Fm                              C              G    Fm
Cause tonight your souls required of you

Fm                                      G
Signed on with a stone mad captain
Fm                   F
Rode on Mexico
Fm                G                       C
Look away, look away war behold


Fm                                    G
Jailed with killers one and all
Fm                       F
But we were killers free
Fm                G                       C
Look away, look away, look to me

G                         C                            Fm
You saw the lancers mid heathen hordes
G                        C                             Fm
Bloodstained veils and costumes of war
G               C                  Fm
Hell ain’t half full boy hear me
G                                    C             Fm
War is the game and the god we seek

Fm                                   G
We set out as men of reason
Fm                         F
Armed with Navy Colts
Fm                G                       C
Look away,look away, work paid in gold

Fm                                      G
But you stood witness to yourself
Fm                        F
Our trial you did betray
Fm                G                       C
Look away,look away to judgment day

G                         C                             Fm
We killed in the desert we killed in the streets
G                         C                       Fm
We chose what shall and shall not be
G              C                       Fm
We stood with pistols, fought back to back
G                                     C                                 Fm
Now youve stood your ground but what ground is that?


C                        F
Kid don’t you know me?
C                                   F
We are the last of the true
F                 G       C
Drink up! Drink up!
F                 G        C
Drink up! Drink up!
Fm                              C              G    Fm
Cause tonight your souls required of you
