Larry Sparks - Last Day At Gettysburg Chords

[Verse 1]
Em
The gray smoke from the battle
D                Em
rollin' over the hill.
 
The fires, the dead, the dying
    D                  Em
are in my memory ever still.
 
[Chorus]
G             D
Oh, can't you hear,
C         D     G
hear that angel band
                     D
singing, "Come home, soldier,
C      D         Em
to the Promised Land."
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Longstreet, he stole away and cried
     D                           Em
when Lee gave him his orders to attack.
 
In his mind's eyes he could see
     D                              Em
that most of his boys would not be back.
 
[Chorus]
G               D
Oh, can't you hear,
C         D      G
hear that angel band
                     D
singing, "Come home, soldier,
C      D         Em
to the Promised Land."
 
[Verse 3]
Em
Willy Johnson and me,
D                          Em
Rebel soldiers both from Tennessee.
 
Willy, he's lyin' by my side -
D                                    Em
spoke these words to me, and then he died:
 
[Chorus]
G             D
Oh, can't you hear,
C         D     G
hear that angel band
                     D
singing, "Come home, soldier,
C      D        Em
to the Promised Land."
