You Belong To Me

[Verse] (0:13)

C#                Ab
Summer sun beats down
      Bbm            Ab
On Virginia's cotton fields
F#                     D#m
Strong hands work the strong black 
earth
Bbm                   Ab
To the call of the chickadee

  C#                  Ab
A tall man rides with shiny boots
      Bbm                  Ab
On a horse named Robert E. Lee
    F#                  D#m
Now whip will crack and tear men's 
backs
    Bbm                Ab
And ankle chains will gleam



[Chorus] (0:41)

        C#                Ab
He said eagles fly and rabbits run
    Bbm                     Ab
And fire leaps from tree to tree
        Bbm                  D#m
You may think you belong to you
                  F#
But you belong to me
              Bbm
You belong to me
              Ab
You belong to me
                   C#
Yeah you belong to me

[Verse] (1:09)

       C#                   Ab
Shiny boots cut 'cross the wet grass
           Bbm                     
Door hinge creaks 'bout quarter to 
Ab
three
       F#                     D#m
Slave quarters are still and silent
            Bbm                   
Strong hand covers her mouth as she 
Ab
sleeps

     C#                            
She holds her breath and prays that
  Ab
 death
      Bbm               Ab
Will lift her from this dream
         F#                        
In the next room her young children
     D#m
 are cryin'
          Bbm                Ab
When they hear that muffled scream



[Chorus] (1:38)

        C#                Ab
He said eagles fly and rabbits run
    Bbm                     Ab
And fire leaps from tree to tree
        Bbm                  D#m
You may think you belong to you
                  F#
But you belong to me
              Bbm
You belong to me
              Ab
You belong to me
                   C#
Yeah you belong to me

[Verse] (2:14)

     C#                Ab
Fire lept behind the stranger
       Bbm            Ab
As he stood upon the porch
        F#                  D#m
In his right hand he held a shotgun
       Bbm          Ab
In his other hand a torch

C#                  Ab
Master's shot went wide
            Bbm              Ab
Nat Turner stood him on his knees
         F#             D#m
The plantation burned around them
        Bbm                   Ab
Master cursed and whispered, Please

     C#                Ab
Nat threw the torch aside
        Bbm            Ab
So his other hand was free
    F#               D#m
He cocked back the hammer
    Bbm                    Ab
The fire lept from tree to tree



[Chorus] (2:58)

        C#                Ab
He said eagles fly and rabbits run
    Bbm                     Ab
And fire leaps as you can see
        Bbm                  D#m
You may think you belong to you
                  F#
But you belong to me
              Bbm
You belong to me
              Ab
You belong to me
                   C#
Yeah you belong to me
