Аккорды Tennessee Ernie Ford - The Fall Of Charleston

[Verse 1]

G                                    C                     G
Oh have you heard the glorious news? Is the cry from every mouth
G              C            G             D
Charleston is taken and the rebels put to rout
G                              C
And Beauregard the chivalrous, he ran to save his bacon
G
When he saw general Sherman's yanks
C                 D
And Charleston is taken
       G                   C
With a whack row-di-dow, a hunky boy is general Sherman
G                 C      D      G
Whack row-di-dow, invincible is he

[Verse 2]
G                                    C                     G
The South Carolina chivalry, they once did loudly boast
G                       C                G                   D
That the footsteps of a Union man should ne'er pollute their coast
G                                        C
They'd fight the yankees two to one, who only fought for booty
G                                        C                 D
But when the mudsills came along, it was legs do your duty
       G                   C
With a whack row-di-dow, Babylon has fallen
G                       C      D      G
Whack row-di-dow, the end is drawing near

[Verse 3]
G                                    C                     G
And from the sacred city, this valiant warlike throng
G             C                G         D
Skedaddled in confusion although 30, 000 strong
G                                  C
Without a shot, without a blow, or least sign of resistence
G                                              C               D
And leaving their poor friends behind with the yankees for assisstence
       G                   C
With a whack row-di-dow, how are you southern chivalry?
G                       C      D      G
Whack row-di-dow, your race is nearly run

[Verse 4]
G                                    C                     G
And again o'er Sumpter's battered walls the stars and stripes do fly
G              C            G             D
While the chivalry of 61, in the last ditch does lie
G                                   C
With Sherman, Grant and Porter too, to lead our men to glory
G                                              C               D
We'll squash old Jeff's Confederacy and then get hunky-dory
       G                   C
With a whack row-di-dow, how are you neutral Johnny Bull?
G                       C      D      G
Whack row-di-dow, we'll settle next with you
