Oh Dmpass the rum on down the line it's Bbgetting pretty Acold
It's been Dmnine straight days of hell and burning Bbfires in the Asnow
And I Dmhaven't seen my baby since that Bbold black ship set Asail
Still Dmwe're holding out 'till winter dies and Bbhoping our Astrength prevDmails
Dm Bb A
Dm Bb A Dm
[Verse]
The Dmfull moon peaks around the clouds Bbas the grey wolves Acry
The Dmhour's getting late and we've drunk Bbevery bottle Adry
Just Dmone more march from dusk 'till dawn 'till we Bbfinally Aarrive
At the Dmgates of those who long ago burned our Bbhouses and Atook our Dmlives
[Chorus]
And we'll sing
"DmWe are the Dead South who cBbame across the sAea
To tDmake back our lives and leave this lBband Aof miserDmy
Our wDmill is our wBbeapon our hAearts forever bDmound
Come on now tDmilt your bottle bBback and let's go grAab another rDmound
[Verse]
The Dmwind is at our back the ground is shBbaking at our fAeet
MDmarching for the gates we pray the lBbord my soul to kAeep
For Dmif we ever get ourselves out frBbom this mess alAive
I'll be sDminging this song for years to say I'm hBbappy wAe survDmived
