I turned 17 in '63 on a battle feild in Tennessee.

until in Dixburg on some farmers land, 
C 
so close that we fought hand in hand

I met a rebel boy, but spared his life

C 
I could tell that in so many ways, 
G                                D

C 
in the dark we cried ourselves to sleep 
G               D               G 
longing for our mother's loving arms
