FHis eyes they closed and Fhis last brFeath spoke
He had seen all to be Amseen
FA life once full, now an FemptyF vase
With the blossoms on his Gearly Fgrave
Walk Faway me boy, walk Faway me boy
And by Ammornin' we'll beG free
Wipe the Fgolden tear from yourF motherF dear
And raise what's left of the Gflag forF me.

X X X Then the rosary beads count them one, two, three Fell apart as they hit the Amfloor. In our Fgarb of black we must FpayF respect To the color we're Gborn toF mourn. Walk Faway me boysF, walk away me boys And by Ammornin' we'll beG free Wipe the Fgolden tear from yourF motherF dear And raise what's left of the Gflag forF me.FIn his place there grew an angryF festeredF wound
Filled with hatred and Amremorse
Where I'd Fpick and scratch till theF blood itF matched
The silent rage now that Gfills myF lungs
FFor there are many ways to kill a Fman they Fsay
With bayonet, axe, or swAmord
ButF son a bullet fired from aF shapelessF guise
Leaves but the shell of a GThompsonF gun.
Walk Faway me boysF, walk away me boys
And by Ammornin' we'll beG free
Wipe the Fgolden tear from yourF motherF dear
And raise what's left of the Gflag forF me.

Am (hold) Am (hold) G
From the Eastern to the Western shore
Am (hold) Am (hold) G
Where many men and many more will fall.
But no Fangel flies withF me tonight
AmTill freedom reigns onG all
And curse the Fname for which weF slaved ourF days
Till every man shall his GkingdomF come

But sure as Fnight turns day ends theF passionF play
Oh my god what have they Amdone
With Fmadman's rage well they Fdug ourF graves
But the dead rise Gagain you Ffools
Walk Faway me boysF, walk away me boys
And by Ammornin' we'll beG free
Wipe the Fgolden tear from yourF motherF dear
And raise what's left of the Gflag forF me.
Walk Faway me boysF, walk away me boys
And by Ammornin' we'll beG free
(hold) F (hold) F F (hold)
Wipe the golden tear from your mother dear
(no chord)
And raise what's left of the flag for me.
