Yankee Bayonet taby ukulele według Decemberists

C                        Am
Heart-carved tree trunk, Yankee bayonet
C                   Am
A sweetheart left behind
C                         Am
Far from the hills of the sea-swelled Carolinas
C                        Am
That's where my true love lies

C Am C Am
(oh, oh, oh, ooohh, oh oh oh...)

C                    Am
Look for me when the sun-bright swallow
      C                   Am
Sings upon the birch bough high
C                                  Am
But you are in the ground with the voles and the weevils
     C                   Am
All a'chew upon bones so dry

Chorus:
A            C
But when the sun breaks
A          C        G
To no more bulletin battle-cry
A             C
Then will you make a grave
A             F
For I will be home then
          G
I will be home then
          F
I will be home then
          G
I will be home then
   C
Then


When I was a girl how the hills of Oconee
Made a seam to hem me in
There at the fair when our eyes caught, careless
Got my heart right pierced by a pin

But oh, did you see all the dead of Manassas
All the bellies and the bones and the bile
Though I lingered here with the blankets barren
And my own belly big with child

But when the sun breaks
To no more bulletin battle-cry
Then will you make a grave
For I will be home then
I will be home then
I will be home then
I will be home then

--------------------------------------------
F                               G
Stems and bones and stone walls too
              F
keep me from you
                      E
Scaly skin is all too few
   G               C
To keep me from you
-------------------------------------------

*Returns to regular chord pattern (C Am C Am):*

But oh my love, though our bodies may be parted
Though our skin may not touch skin
Look for me with the sun-bright sparrow
I will come on the breath of the wind

C Am C Am
(oh, oh, oh, ooohh, oh, oh, oh...)

End = Am
