(ver. 1)
England Dan And John Ford Coley
INTRO: Am D Am D
 
Am                  C            F
Matthew crossed the river on his horse
            Dm           Bb              G       Am
Said, "This bullet in my side is getting worse"
             C               F
Called in to fight without a choice
        Dm                Bb
We were just too weak to move
       G
We got nothing left to prove
 
 
CHORUS:
    C  G  Am     C          F
And I, I, I just want to go home
G
Martha's alone
    C  G  Am     C          F
And I, I, I just want to go home
          Em                 Am    D  Am  D
I've been gone too long, too long
 
 
Am            C                F
Fever started dragging Matthew down
      Dm             Bb          G    
And I hope we find a doctor or a town
  Am               C             F
Today we left good people on the ground
          Dm               Bb
They were just too weak to move
       G
We got nothing left to prove
 
 
CHORUS:
    C  G  Am     C          F
And I, I, I just want to go home
G
Martha's alone
    C  G  Am     C          F
And I, I, I just want to go home
          Em                 Am    A
I've been gone too long, too long
 
 
BRIDGE:
          Dm            Bb
Well they hit us in the morning 
    F                           C      G
And cannon balls made us all go down
     Dm            Bb
They hit us in the morning
        F                              C      
And the cannon balls scared us half to death
              E E7 Am
Never felt so scared__
 
 
INTERLUDE:  F C G Am G  F C G 
 
 
Am          C              F
I have seen all that I can stand
        Dm               Bb                   G     Am
And the cotton's burning black throughout our land
            C            F
Had Matthew been a wiser man
        Dm               Bb
We were just too weak to move
       G
We got nothing left to prove
 
 
CHORUS:
    C  G  Am     C          F
And I, I, I just want to go home
G
Martha's alone
    C  G  Am     C          F
And I, I, I just want to go home
          Em                 Am    D  Am  D  Am  D  Am
I've been gone too long, too long
