Well [D] I pray every [A] day that [E] the good lord keep me [F#m] safe
[D] And I try [A] to hide all [E] this fear built in my spine
[D] Give a man [A] a day so I can [E] see your pretty [F#m] face
[D] Until I [C#] arrive in [F#m] your arms
Well [D] I don't know what you're [A] doing fighting in this silly war
[D] You're not a Yankee love, [B] nor a great black confederate
[E] Trying to keep these slaves up for you
[D]
Trying to do [A] these things the best you can
[D] Now it's time to come on home
[B] I got a baby in the oven [C#] that needs a bath before she gets old
Well [D] I pray every [A] day that [E] the good lord keep [F#m] me safe

[A] I'm not a Yankee or [F#m] a great black anymore
