[Intro]
Dm
In the southern part of Texas
C
In the town of San Antone
Dm F A Dm
There's a fortress all in ruins that the weeds have overgrown
C
You may look in vain for crosses and you'll never see a-one
Dm F C Dm
But sometimes between the setting and the rising of the sun
[Bridge]
C Dm
You can hear a ghostly bugle
C Dm
As the men go marching by
C Dm
You can hear them as they answer
A Dm
To that roll call in the sky
C F C F
Colonel Travis, Davy Crockett, and a hundred eighty more
E7 A
Captain Dickenson, Jim Bowie
E7 A7
Present and accounted for
[Verse]
Dm C Dm
Back in 1836, Houston said to Travis
F
âGet some volunteers and go
A Dm
Fortify the Alamoâ
C Dm
Well the men came from Texas
F C
And from old Tennessee
Dm C
And they joined up with Travis
F C A7
Just to fight for the right to be free.
[Verse]
Dm
Indian scouts with squirrel guns
C Dm
Men with muzzle-loaders
F
Stood together, heel and toe
A Dm
To defend the Alamo.
C Dm
âYou may ne'er see your loved ones,â
F C
Travis told them that day
Dm C
âThose who want to can leave now
F C A7
Those who fight to the death let 'em stay.â
[Verse]
Dm
In the sand he drew a line
C Dm
With his army sabre
F
Out of a hundred eighty five
A Dm
Not a soldier crossed the line
C Dm
With his banners a-dancin'
F C
In the dawns' golden light
Dm C
Santa Anna came prancing
F C A7
On a horse that was black as the night.
[Verse]
Dm
Sent an officer to tell
C Dm
Travis to surrender
F
Travis answered with a shell
A Dm
And a rousing rebel yell
C Dm
Santa Anna turned scarlet
F C
âPlay Duguello!â he roared
Dm C
âI will show them no quarter
F C A7
Every one will be put to the sword!â
[Verse]
Dm
One hundred and eighty five
C Dm
Holding back five thousand
F
Five days, six days, eight days, ten
A Dm
Travis held and held again
C Dm
Then he sent for replacements
F C
For his wounded and lame
Dm C
But the troops that were coming
F C A7
Never came, never came, never came...
[Verse]
Dm
Twice he charged and blew recall
C Dm
On the fatal third time
F
Santa Anna breached the wall
A Dm
And he killed them, one and all
C Dm
Now the bugles are silent
F C
And there's rust on each sword
Dm C
And the small band of soldiers...
F
Lie asleep in the arms of the Lord...
[Outro]
Dm
In the southern part of Texas
C
Near the town of San Antone
Dm F A Dm
Like a statue on his pinto rides a cowboy all alone
C
And he sees the cattle grazing where a century before
Dm F C Dm
Santa Anna's guns were blazing and the cannons used to roar
C Dm
And his eyes turn sorta misty
C Dm
And his heart begins to glow
C Dm
And he takes his hat off slowly...
A Dm
To the men of the Alamo
C Dm
To the thirteen days of glory
A Dm
At the siege of Alamo...
