Cruel War

        C          Am     F            G
The cruel war is raging, Johnny has to fight
    Am         F           G             C
I want to be with him from morning till night.
                  Am        F              G
I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so.
          Am          F
Won't you let me go with you?
G            C
No, my love, no.

              Am     F            G
Tomorrow is Sunday, Monday is the day
            Am           F            G        C
That your captain will call you, and you must obey.
                  Am            F               G
Your captain will call you, it grieves my heart so.
          Am         F
Won't you let me go with you?
G            C
No, my love, no.

                  Am          F                G
I'll tie back my hair, men's clothing I'll put on.
      Am           F         G        C
I'll pass as your comrade as we march along.
                  Am           F              G
I'll pass as your comrade, no one will ever know.
          Am         F
Won't you let me go with you?
G            C
No, my love, no.

            Am        F            G
Johnny, oh Johnny, I fear you are unkind.
  Am           F           G          C
I love you far better than all of man-kind.
               Am           F               G
I love you far better than words can e'er express
          Am         F
Won't you let me go with you?
G             C
Yes, my love, Yes.
