G C G  
His eyes they closed and his last breath spoke  
Em  
He had seen all to be seen  
G C G  
A life once full, now an empty vase  
D G  
With the blossoms on his early grave  
C G  
Walk away me boy, walk away me boy  
Em D  
And by mornin' we'll be free  
G C G  
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear  
D 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  
Fell apart as they hit the floor.  
G C G  
In our garb of black we must pay respect  
D G  
To the color we're born to mourn.  
C G  
Walk away me boy, walk away me boy  
Em D  
And by mornin' we'll be free  
G C G  
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear  
D G  
And raise what's left of the flag for me.

G C G  
In his place there grew an angry festered wound  
Em  
Filled with hatred and remorse  
G C G  
Where I'd pick and scratch till the blood it matched  
D G  
The silent rage now that fills my lungs  
C G  
For there are many ways to kill a man they say  
Em  
With bayonette, axe, or sword  
G C G  
But son a bullet fired from a shapeless guise  
D G  
Leaves but the shell of a Thompson gun.  
 
C G  
Walk away me boy, walk away me boy  
Em D  
And by mornin' we'll be free  
G C G  
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear  
D G  
And raise what's left of the flag for me.  
 
GCGE  
GCGDG  
 
 
Em (hold) Em (hold) D  
From the Eastern to the Western shore  
Em (hold) Em (hold) D  
Where many men and many more will fall.  
C G  
But no angel flies with me tonight  
Em D  
Till freedom reigns on all  
G C G  
And curse the name for which we slaved our days  
D G  
Till every man shall his kingdom come  
 
GCGE  
GCGDG  
CGED  
GCGDG  
G C G  
But sure as night turns day ends the passion play  
Em  
Oh my god what have they done  
G C G  
With madman's rage well they dug our graves  
D G  
But the dead rise again you fools  
 
C G  
Walk away me boy, walk away me boy  
Em D  
And by mornin' we'll be free  
G C G  
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear  
D G  
And raise what's left of the flag for me.  
C G  
 
Walk away me boy, walk away me boy  
Em D  
And by mornin' we'll be free  
G C G  
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear  
{N.C}  
And raise what's left of the flag for me.
