Ballad Of A Dead Man

Em  D  C  G  D  C  G

    G
The moon lights up
G                    C
Over the battlefield now
       C                     G
With a blistering heat somehow
G                                   D
Lifeless limp and broken hearts are dead
     D                              C
They should have just stayed home instead
    C              G
And stayed alive

    G
A letter arrives
G                          C
It glistens a mother's eyes
    C                          G
She wonders where, when and why
    G                            D
She could have tucked him in his bed
       D                         C
With a kiss on his cheek and his head
C                    G
 Where he'd still lie

         Em       D                C
Well the moon and stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong
G                 D
 Our boys are dead
D               C
They've been mislead
C           G
 Nothin more

    G
The sun light up
       G                            C
Brings sparkles in the morning light
         C                         G
Rubs her belly, bows her head to cry
    G                         D
She lost him before they were wed
         D                          C
But he's there in her heart and her head
C                G
 He'll stay alive

         Em       D                C
Well the moon and stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong
G                 D
 Our boys are dead
D               C
They've been mislead
C           G
 Nothin more
         Em       D                C
Well the moon and stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong
G                 D
 Our boys are dead
D               C
They've been mislead
C           G
 Nothin more

    G
The moon lights up
G                    C
Over the battlefield now
