Gettysburg

C                  Em            
Sick and tired of Gettysburg, 
   F
they made me write it down
C                 Em           F
That was such a heavy word for me to
 carry around
C                 Em        
Just a young American, another 
   F
pretty slave
C                 Em              
Trying to get to heaven, man, like 
 F
all the billboards say

C       G         F
ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh
C       G         F
ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh

C                  Em            
I found you dancing, girl, there 
   F
between the pines
C                  Em            
Every, everything I've learned 
   F
went running out into the night
C                  Em        
You named me baby blue, took my 
       F
shaky hands
C                  Em            
Loved me for a year or two, then 
   F
danced away again

C       G         F
ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh
C       G         F
ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh

C                  Em            
Now I guess I understand, it took
   F
 a while to learn
C                       Em       
You were trying to teach me that,
        F
 to damn the heavy words
C                     Em         
Meet me down in Gettysburg, hold 
      F
me in the shade
C                  Em        
Rolling on the very earth where 
       F
dying boys had laid
F
Where dying boys had laid
