Lincolns Funeral Train
Norman Blake
D
(início)
Em G D On the twenty-first of April, eighteen and sixty-five C Bm Em Three-thirty-one left Washington for Lincoln's last train ride G D The cannons boomed, the bonfires burned, the evergreens wore grey C Bm Em Three-thirty-one in the morning sun, the hearse, that journey made
Chorus
Em G See that train coming, boys D A Asus2 Rolling down the main C Bm D Draped in black, she won't be back Em It's Lincoln's funeral train Em G Asus4 A With the portrait of a martyred man shot down by a traitor C Bm D Em Now toll the bell and bid farewell to the great emancipator
Verse 2
Em G D Crowd's jam the streets for a final look, At the great man who had stood C Bm Em At the country's helm through the bitter war, That seemed of little good G D Felled by the bullet of John Wilkes Booth, As the battle died away C Bm Em His guiding spirit to reconcile by absence brought dismay
Chorus
Em G See that train coming, boys D A Asus2 Rolling down the main C Bm D Draped in black, she won't be back Em It's Lincoln's funeral train Em G Asus4 A With the portrait of a martyred man shot down by a traitor C Bm D Em Now toll the bell and bid farewell to the great emancipator C Bm D Em Now toll the bell and bid farewell to the great emancipator
