[Intro]
(Last line of VERSE 1)
DThe moon was softly Gshining on an old KeE7ntucky home
A7The fragrance of magnolias Dfilled the air
A lonely girl was writing to her Gsweetheart ’cross the E7foam
A7May God protect you darling over Dthere
[Verse 1]
DSilver dew on the bluegrass tA7onight
How it shines in the moon's silver Dlight
Soldier boy sD7o far from me Ghow I wish that you coE7uld see
SiA7lver dew on the bluegrass Dtonight
LEAD – (VERSE 1)
[Verse 2]
DStars of gold on the old flag A7tonight
While they fight for the cause that iDs right
They D7will keep that flag on high for the Gones who had E7to die
SA7tars of gold on the old flag tDonight
[Verse 3]
DSilver dew on the bluegrass A7tonight
While I pray you'll come safe through the Dfight
Close yoD7ur eyes and think of Gme and my darling you E7will see
A7Silver dew on the bluegrass Dtonight
[Tag]
DThey will keep that flD7ag on high for the Gones who had to E7die
A7Stars of gold on the old flag Dtonight.
