Chords for TWO SOLDIERS - COWBOY JUNKIES . Lyrics

[F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] She was just a [C] blue-eyed [F] Boston girl Her voice [C] was low as hay
_ _ [G] I'll do your bidding, [F] comrade of mine If I ride [C] back again
_ [D] But if you [C] ride back and I am dead You'll do [G] as much for me _
Mother, [C] you know, must hear [F] the news So ride her [C] tenderly _ _ _ _ _
[G] She's waiting at [C] home like a [F] patient saint Her fallen face [C] paled with woe
_ [G] Her heart would be broken when [F] I am gone I'll see her [C] soon, I know
_ Just then the order came [G] to charge Firm and stiff, hand touched hand _
They [C] said, aye, and away [F] they go That [C] brave and devoted band _ _ _ _ _
[G] Straight was the [C] course to the [F] top of the hill And the rebels they [C] shot and shelled
_ [G] Loud furrows of death through the [F] toil and ranks And guarded the [C] man they fell
This [G] soon was a horrible dying [D] yell From heights that [G] they could not gain _ _
And those [C] who do mendeth [F] at stares Go slowly [C]
back again _ _ _ _ _
[G] But among the [C] dead that were [F] left on the hill Was a girl with [C] curly hair
_ [G] This tall, dark man who had fought by [F] her side Laid dead [C] beside her there
_ _ [G] There was no one to write the green-eyed girl The words that her lover had said _
While mother at home is awaiting [F] her girl _ _ She'll [C] only know she's dead
_ [F] She'll only know [C] she's dead
_ [F] She'll only know [C] she's dead _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
