--
There is a lot of picking in this song (not much strumming) not to mention a
plethora of other instruments giving an overwhelming and eerie effect to
the music. But I tried to find the chords as best I could in the'
conglomeration of instruments.

Verse 1

I was [F#m]there in the [F#m/E]winter of '6[D]4, camped in the [D/E]ice at Nashville's [D/F#]door.

Three-h[A]undred miles our [A/Ab]trail had [F#m]led, we [E]barely had time to [E/C#]bury our [D]dead.

When the [D]yankees charged and the colors [E]fell, Overton[E] Hill was a[E/C#] living h[D]ell.

When we called re[D]treat it was almost d[E]ark,

I d[E]ied with a grape-sho[E/C#]t in my [Dmaj7]heart.

Chorus

[D]Say a p[E]rayer for [F#m]peace, for [D]every f[D/C#]allen s[Esus4]on.[E]

[D]Set my s[E]pirit f[F#m]ree, let [D]me lay [D/C#]down my [Esus4]gun.[E]

Sweet [Bm]Mother Mar[Bm/C#]y, I'm so t[D]ired,

[D]but I can't come home til th[D/E]e last shot's [F#m]fired. [E]

Verse 2

In [F#m]June[F#m/E] of 19[D]44, I [D]waded in the b[D/E]lood of Omaha's[D/F#] shore.

Twenty-[A]one and [A/Ab]scared to [F#m]death, my [E]heart poundin'[E/C#] in my ch[D]est.

I almost [D]made the first sea w[E]all, when my[E] friends turned and [E/C#]saw me fa[D]ll.

I still [D]smell the smoke, I can tas[E]te the mud,

as I l[E]ay there dying from a [E/C#]loss of b[Dmaj7]lood.

Chorus

Interlude

I'm [D]in the fields of Vietnam, the [E]mountains of Afghanistan,

And [D]I'm still hopin', waitin', prayin' I [E]did not die in vain.

Chorus (reprise)

[D]Say a p[E]rayer for [F#m]peace, for [D]every f[D/C#]allen s[Esus4]on.[E]

[D]Set our [E]spirits[F#m] free, le[D]t us la[D/C#]y down o[Esus4]ur guns.[E]

Sweet [Bm]Mother Mar[Bm/C#]y, We're so t[D]ired,

but [D]We can't come home til the[D/E] last shot's fi[F#m]red.

[D]Til the Last Shot's [F#m]Fired.[D]

(closing chorus is a cappella)
