V1:
            G                            F
Well I came back from the Civil War Just twenty-two years old
       C                           F     C       G
I done killed American men Now the devil owns my soul
          G                               F
Well I''ve always been a Christian man And that''s not hard to tell
         C                                       F      C     G
But with all the killin that I''ve done Well I''ll surely go to hell

CHORUS:
       G                         F
Well I am a rebel soldier No I''m not afraid to fight
        C                         F      C        G
For the lives of the innocent And all my Southern pride
       G                       F
Well I am rebel soldier No I''m not afraid to die
        C                               F         C      G 
You may hang me in the morning But I''ll haunt you in the night

INTRO X 3

V2:
          G                              F
Me and my brothers went to war I was the oldest of the three
          C                           F        C    G
I was the only one who came home To a murdered family
         G                                      F
Well the Yanks had burnt our house down With my family inside
       C                                              F        C        G
And my Daddy got shot tryin to fight ''em off And they left him there to die

CHORUS:

INTRO X 3

V3:
          G                       F
Me and my friends got together To start a guerilla band
          C                              F          C       G
And Track down those sons a bithces That torched up all our land
        G                           F
We left early in the morning On the 14th of July
           C                                F             C      G
And By the 26th of the very same month We''d put em in the by and by

CHORUS:

INTRO X 3

V4:
      G                         F
Now I am a wanted outlaw Bounty hunters on my trail
         C                                 F      C      G
Theres a lawman behind every tree Wants to put me in the jail
          G                            F
Well they cornered me in August Of the very same year
           C                          F                        C                G
And by the noon of the next day I was swingin by a rope with a grin from ear to ear

CHORUS:

INTRO X 3 Then fade out
