G G                        C C          G G 
His eyes they closed and his last breath spoke
Em Em
He had seen all to be seen
G G C C G G
A A life once full, now an empty vase
D D G G
With the blossoms on his early grave
C C G G
Walk away me boy, walk away me boy
Em Em D D
And by mornin' we'll be free
G G C C G G
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear
D D G G
And raise what's left of the flag for me.

[N.C.] X X X

Then the rosary beads count them one, two, three
Em Em
Fell apart as they hit the floor.
G G C C G G
In our garb of black we must pay respect
D D G G
To the color we're born to mourn.
C C G G
Walk away me boys, walk away me boys
Em Em D D
And by mornin' we'll be free
G G C C G G
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear
D D G G
And raise what's left of the flag for me.

G G C C G G
In his place there grew an angry festered wound
Em Em
Filled with hatred and remorse
G G C C G G
Where I'd pick and scratch till the blood it matched
D D G G
The silent rage now that fills my lungs
G G C C G G
For there are many ways to kill a man they say
Em Em
With bayonet, axe, or sword
G G C C G G
But son a bullet fired from a shapeless guise
D D G G
Leaves but the shell of a Thompson gun.

C C G G
Walk away me boys, walk away me boys
Em Em D D
And by mornin' we'll be free
G G C C G G
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear
D D G G
And raise what's left of the flag for me.

Em Em (hold) Em Em (hold) D D
From the Eastern to the Western shore
Em Em (hold) Em Em (hold) D D
Where many men and many more will fall.

C C G G
But no angel flies with me tonight
Em Em D D
Till freedom reigns on all
G G C C G G
And curse the name for which we slaved our days
D D G G
Till every man shall his kingdom come

G G C C G G
But sure as night turns day ends the passion play
Em Em
Oh my god what have they done
G G C C G G
With madman's rage well they dug our graves
D D G G
But the dead rise again you fools

C C G G
Walk away me boys, walk away me boys
Em Em D D
And by mornin' we'll be free
G G C C G G
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear
D D G G
And raise what's left of the flag for me.

C C G G
Walk away me boys, walk away me boys
Em Em D D
And by mornin' we'll be free
(hold) G G (hold) C C G G (hold)
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear
(no chord)
And raise what's left of the flag for me.
