God Bless Robert E. Lee

A                       D        
Well the mansion where the 
     A
General used to live is burning down
Cottonfields are blue, with 
  E
Sherman's troops
  A               D        A
I overheard a Yankee say yesterday 
Nashville fell
So I'm on my way, to join the fight 
 E             A
General Lee might need my help.
                     D
But look away, look away Dixie, I 
don't want them to see
                  A     E         
What they're doing to my Dixie, 
     A
God Bless Robert E. Lee.

A                         D      
Sherman's troops, burned Atlanta,
        A
 and the flames lit up the sky
                    E            A
And those of us who survived it, are
 watchin' my Dixie die.
                 D         A
But today, at Appamattox, General 
Lee sat down
                E    A
And surrended to the Yankees and 
Ulysses S. Grant.
              D
So look away look away Dixie, I 
don't want them to see
             A     E              
What they're doing to my Dixie, 
     A
God Bless Robert E. Lee.

I won't ever stop loving you my 
  D               A
Dixie, till they put me in the 
ground
                               E
And the last words they probably 
                   A
hear from me are God Bless Robert E.
 Lee
