The Cornhusker Come A Runnin Boys

D
Come a runnin' boys
D                                 
Don’t you hear that noise like the
                 A
 thunder in the sky
A
How it rolls along in a good old 
song
                      D
From the sons of Nebraski
D
Now it's coming near with a rising 
cheer
                          G
That will sweep all foes away
                D
So with all our vim
         Bm                    G  
We are bound to win and we're 
      A    D
going to win today

D
In the days of old
D                                 
Johnny Bender bold would just take
               A
 that ball in hand
A
And with Benedict right in front of 
him
                             D
They would set sail for the land
D
Then Doc Eager too with a chosen few
                        G
Would be all round everywhere

                  D
And before they’d quit
           Bm              G      
they would calmly sit down behind 
      A         D
that goalpost there


[CHORUS]
    A
For Nebraska and the scarlet
    D
For Nebraska and the cream
            A
Though they go thru many battles
     D
Our colors still are seen
          Bm             A
And so in contest and in victory
        G                 A
We will wave them for the team
         G             D
And will always stir a Cornhusker
    G        A       D
The scarlet and the cream

         D
When the sun is bright
         D                      
And the fields are ripe with the 
 D             A
tassel on the corn
        A                   A
You can hear it grow in the evening 
glow
       A             D
Or the hush of early morn
       D                      D   
In the state so fair 'tis the very
             D               G
 air that inspires us with a zest
            D                 Bm
That in any fray we will not dismay
          G      A     D
But we'll do our level best


[Chorus]
    A
For Nebraska and the scarlet
    D
For Nebraska and the cream
            A
Though they go thru many battles
     D
Our colors still are seen
          Bm             A
And so in contest and in victory
        G                 A
We will wave them for the team
         G             D
And will always stir a Cornhusker
    G        A       D
The scarlet and the cream
