Johnny Horton
Johnny Reb

E A E

Chorus:
E
You fought all the way Johnny Rebel Johnny Rebel
You fought all the way Johnny Reb.

E 	  	  	      A             E
I saw you were marchin with Robert E. Lee
E 	  	  	              B
You held your head a high tryin to win the victory.
        A             	  	  	 E
You fought for your folks, but you didn’t die in vain
E 	  	  	            A                     E
Even though you lost, they speak highly of your name.

Chorus: Cause you… 

E 	  	                             A     E
I heard your teeth chatter from the cold outside
E 	  	  	   B
Saw the bullets open up the wounds in your side
   A  	  	            E
I saw the young boys as they began to fall
E 	  	  	  	      A 	                 E
You had tears in your eyes, cause you couldn’t help at all.

Chorus: But you...

 E 	  	              A                E
I saw General Lee raise a saber in his hand
E 	  	  	        B
Heard the cannons roar as you made your last stand
        A 	  	  	            E
You marched into battle with the Grey and the Red
E 	  	  	  	     A                          E
When the cannon smoke cleared took days to count the dead.

Chorus: Cause you …

E 	  	  	     A 	  	   E
When Honest Abe heard the news about your fall
       E                	  	      B 	            
The folks thought he’d call, a great victory ball.
       A 	  	  	            E
But he asked the band to play the song DIXIE
      E 	  	  	 A                    E
For you Johnny Rebel and all that you believe.

Chorus: Cause you…Yeah you…

Chorus: Yeah you…
