Rebel Soldier- Rebel Son Version
(Am)
Oh Polly Oh Polly its for your sake alone
I’ve left my old Father, my Country, my home
I’ve left my old Mother to weep and to mourn
I am a rebel (Dm)soldier, and far from my (Am)home
The grape shot and musket and the cannons lumber loud
Its many a mangled body the blanket for the shroud
Its many a mangled body left on the fields alone
I am a rebel (Dm)soldier and far from my (Am)home
Verse Chords
Here’s a good ol cup of brandy and a glass of wine
You can drink to your true love and I will drink to mine
You can drink to your true love and I’ll lament and moan
I am a rebel (Dm)soldier and far from my (Am)home
I’ll build me a castle on some green mountain high
Where I can see Polly when she is passing by
Where I can see Polly and help her to mourn
I am a rebel (Dm)soldier and far from my (Am)home
Hum last line (Am) (Dm) (Am)
