-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
The marchin' band came down along main street
1 1 -2 -2 1 1 -2 -2
The soldier blues fell in behind
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
I looked across and there I saw Billy
1 1 -2 -2 1 1 -2 -2
Waiting to go and join the line
-5 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3 -2 3
And with her head upon-- his shoulder
-5 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3 3
His young and lovely fiancee
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
From where I stood I saw she was cryin'
-5 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3 3
And through her tears I heard her say
-3 -3 -3 3 -2 -3 -3
Billy, don't be a hero-,
-3 <-3 4 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3
don't be a fool with your life----
<-3 <-3 <-3 -3 3 <-3 <-3
Billy--, don't be a hero---,
<-3 4 -5 -5 4 -4 4 <-3 -3
come back and make me your wife----
-3 4 4 4 -5 -3 -5 4
And as he started to go--,
<-3 4 -5 -5 -5 4 <-3 <5 4 <-3
She said Billy keep your head low-----
-3 -3 -3 3 -2 -3 3 3 <-3 -3 3 3 -3 3 -2
Billy, don't be a he---ro, come back to me-------.
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
The soldier blues were trapped on a hillside
1 1 -2 -2 1 1 -2 -2
The battle raging all around
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
The sergeant cried, We've got to hang on boys!"
1 1 -2 -2 1 1 -2 -2
We've got to hold this piece of ground
-5 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3 -2 3
I need a volunteer- to ride up,
-5 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3 3
And bring us back some extra men,
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
And Billy's hand was up in a moment
-5 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3 3
Forgettin' all the words she said
3 3
She said
-3 -3 -3 3 -2 -3 -3
Billy, don't be a hero-,
-3 <-3 4 4 <-3 -3 <-3 -3 3
don't be a fool with your life----
<-3 <-3 <-3 -3 3 <-3 <-3
Billy--, don't be a hero---,
<-3 4 -5 -5 4 -4 4 <-3 -3
come back and make me your wife----
-3 4 4 4 -5 -3 -5 4
And as he started to go--,
<-3 4 -5 -5 -5 4 <-3 <5 4 <-3
She said Billy keep your head low-----
-3 -3 -3 3 -2 -3 3 3 <-3 -3 3 3 -3 3 -2
Billy, don't be a he---ro, come back to me-------.
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
I heard his fiancee got a letter
1 1 -2 -2 1 1 -2 -2
That told how Billy died that day
-1 -1 3 3 -1 -1 3 3 -3 3
The letter said that he was a hero
1 1 -2 -2 1 1 -2 -2
She should be proud he died that way
-2 -2 -2 -2 -2 -1 -2 2 -2
I heard she threw that letter away |
