BATTLESHIP OF MAINE

From the Spanish-American War

Key: A

 

6   6   6    6     6  -6  6    6

Mc Kin-ley called for vol-un-teers

 6   6  6  -6  5

Then I got my gun

  6    -6   -6 -6 -7   7   7

First Span-iard I saw com-ing

7   -8    7  -7  -6   5

I dropped my gun and run

5  -5   6  6  6

It was all a-bout

 -5   5  -4   -4  -5   4

That Bat-tle-ship of Maine

6   7   7    7     7   -7  -6    6

At war with that great na-tion Spain

 -6 -7  7   7    7     7

When I got back from Spain

7  -6  6  -6  6  5   4

I want to hon-or my name

5  -5   6  6  6

It was all a-bout

 -5   5  -3   -3  -4   4

That Bat-tle-ship of Maine
