running wild in those days

horseshoe and Indian raids

         G              D         
Now it's parachutes and combat

boots and camouflage airplanes

Bm                                
Well the sand box sure gets 
             Em
lonesome and its a hundred and nine 
degrees

Singing carry me back to Virginia 
         C               D
Lord I'm down here on my knees

In the market square while the 
                 C                
bells were ringing loud to fill the 
Am
air

G               D                
Levi gazed his eyes out through 
    C
the rocket glare

           G              D       
Beyond the desert and the ocean to
     Am                 C
 the furthest fields of home

             G                  
And when the bullets pierced his

body he was already gone

Levi Lord Lord Lord the shot
