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
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
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
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__
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
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
