CAPO 2
INTRO: G, E minorEm x2
VERSE:
G+G
There's smoke down by the river
E minorEm
Hear the cannon and the drum
G+G
I've got one thing to ask you honey
E minorEm
Can you run?
G+G
You know I hate to ask so late
E minorEm
But the moment's finally come
G+G
And there won't be time to change your mind
E minorEm
Can you run?
CHORUS:
B minorBm E minorEm
Can you run, to the freedom line
C majorC A minorAm D MajorD
of a Lincoln soldier?
B minorBm E minorEm
Where contraband can be a man
C majorC A minorAm D MajorD
With a musket on his shoulder
E minorEm G+G C majorC
I've got to stand up tall before I'm done
E minorEm G+G C majorC
Wrap these hands of mine around a gun
E minorEm G+G C majorC
And chase the taste of bondage from my tongue

We've just got time to beat the sun

And the boys in gray, are never far away
