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

G D

I did what I was told do an never questioned why,

G

until in Dixburg on some farmers land,

C

so close that we fought hand in hand

G D G

I met a rebel boy, but spared his life

chorus:

C D

In another place another time

G

you mighthave been a freind of mine.

C D G

There'd be no bloody feilds no screams of pain

C D

And i have too wonder what could be,

G

if it came down to you an me.

C D G

If i wore dodden blue or union gray

verse:

G

He was 17 and dressed in grey, and

C

I could tell that in so many ways,

G D

we had a lot in common underneath that uniform.

G

In the day light we fought fearlessly,

C

in the dark we cried ourselves to sleep

G D G

longing for our mother's loving arms

repeat chorus
