Remember The Alamo

C   G   4x

[Verse 1]
  C           G           C      
A hundred and eighty were 
       G         C  G  C  G
challenged by Travis to die
     C            G           
By a line that he drew with his 
  C            G           C   G  C
sword as the battle drew nigh
  F                         C     
A man that crossed over the line 
                  G             
was for glory  but him who would 
            C
live better fly
             G           C        
And over the line went a hundred 
   G       C   G  C
and seventy nine

[Chorus]
F                                 
Heyyyyyy  Santa Ana we're killin' 
                Em
your soldiers below
   F                   C  G      
So men where ever they go   will 
             C   G  C
remember the Alamo

[Verse 2]
              G              C    
Jim Bowie lay dyin'  but his 
      G         C  G  C  G
powder was ready and dry
         C            G       C  
With his knife in his hand he 
        G        C  G  C
took him a few in reply
    F                       Em    
And young Davy Crockett lay 
       C          G               
laughin' and dyin'  the blood and 
           C
the sweat in his eyes
              G         C      
For Texas and freedom a man more 
       G          C  G  C
than willin' to die

[Chorus]
F                                 
Heyyyyyy  Santa Ana we're killin' 
                Em
your soldiers below
   F                   C  G      
So men where ever they go   will 
             C   G  C
remember the Alamo

[Verse 3]
                  G             
They sent a young scout from the 
 C           G          C   G  C  G
battlements bloody and loud
     C            G         
With words of farewell from a 
  C        G           C    G  C
garrison valiant and proud
F                            C   
Grieve not little darlin' my 
      G                      C
dyin'  if Texas is sovereign and 
free
         G          C       
Never surrender and ever with 
  G       C G  C
liberty be

[Chorus]
F                                 
Heyyyyyy  Santa Ana we're killin'
