Capo 7 (to match recoording)

G  D  Em7  C  twice


G            D             Em7                C
Dear sweet Suzanne, well I know its been some time 
           G                 D            Em7              C
since I've got the chance to write you to let you know I'm doin fine


G                D                  Em7           C 
Today we finally stopped to let our horses have a break 
         G               D            Em7                 C 
With the yankees right behind us only God knows what lies in our fate 
G                    D     Em7     C 
The cannon balls are flyin over my head 
     G                  D                  Em7             C 
As I fight here on this battlefield that's soaked in blood red 


The horses pull away with another load of my dead friends 
They're headed into town so they can ship em home again 
They're finally goin home but not on there own two feet 
They're on a wagon in a wooden box goin to a heart broke family


And I pray every night that that won't be me 
We're on a battlefield of broken souls dear Lord can't You see
It ain't about the north and South or who wins the fight 
It ain't about the blue and Gray we're the one's stuck here to die 


Most of us stuck here to fight don't even own a slave 
Lose our lives for some rich ol man who thinks he knows the way 
He thinks the way into heaven is just by what you own 
But all the horses cows and land can't go with you when you go 


G            D            Em7                C 
Dear sweet Suzanne well I know its been some time 
           G                 D             Em7              C 
Since I've got the chance to write you and let you know I'm doin fine
G             D     Em7              C 
Just one last thing before I let you go 
       G                D             Em7      C      D       D  
Well I hope this letter reaches you before the box carries me home
