Verse:
6 5 5 6 7 -8 7
In the pri-son cell I sit
7 -7 -6 7 7 -6 6
Think-ing Mo-ther dear of you
6 -5 5 6 7 -8 8
And our bright and hap-py home
8 -8 7 -8
So far a-way
6 -5 5 6 7 -8 7
And the tears they fill my eyes
7 -7 -6 7 7 -6 6
`Spite of all that I can do
8 -8 7 -7 7 -6
Though I try to cheer my
-7 6 -7 -8 7
Com-rades and be gay
Chorus:
8 8 8
Tramp! tramp! tramp!
-8 7 -6 6 7
The boys are march-ing
-8 -8 8 -8 7 8 -8
Cheer up com-rades, they will come
6 -5 5 6 7 -8 7
And be-neath the star-ry flag
7 -7 -6 7 7 -6 6
We will breathe the air a-gain
8 -8 7 -7
Of the free land
7 -6 -7 6 -7 -8 7
In our own be-lov-ed home
Verse:
In the battle-front we stood
When their fiercest charge they made
And they swept us off
A hundred men or more.
But before we'd reached their lines
They were beaten back dismayed
And we heard the cry of
"Vict'ry!" o'er and o'er.
Chorus
Now within the prison cell
We are waiting for the day
That will come to open
Wide the iron door.
And the hollow eye grows bright
And the poor heart almost gay
When we think of seeing home
And friends once more.
Chorus |
