The Day The Sun Stood Still
Tono: Original
Capo1
C F C F
C
We were young and bound for glory
F
Itchin' for a fight like you
G
Bringin' hell and purgatory
Em
To the boys who wore the Blue
F G
And I thought I'd seen it all
Em Am
Till the day night wouldn't fall
F
Oh how the sun did blaze
G
Wouldn't go down for days.
C
I got shot and lost my rifle
F
When the first wave hit the rise
G
And the guns rolled out like thunder
Em
And the black smoke burned my eyes
F G
And I watched it all unfold
Em Am
Just the way the Bible told
F
Joshua's endless day
G
Keepin' the night at bay.
Am
And the soldiers kept a comin'
F
Til the ground looked like a sea
G
Of Blue and Grey
Am
And I watched it from a distance
F G
Wonderin' if I would've fought, or run away.
Chorus:
C
The Day The Sun Stood Still
G
How they beat the bloody drums
Am
And the seconds moved like hours
F
But the sunset never comes
C
And the cannons shake the ground
G
And the bullets test your will
Am
Even shadows found no cover
F
On that Godforsaken hill
G C F
The Day The Sun Stood Still.
C
And I watched them lean their shoulders
To the fearful hail of lead
G
And I prayed for night to save us
Em
And I cried and bowed my head
F G
But the sun just kept a-creepin'
Em Am
Cross a cold indifferent sky
F
Castin' a deadly glow
G
On all the men below.
Am
All the hours in a lifetime
F G
Don't add up to one while minute, in that s-un
Am
And the heroes and the cowards
F G
Look the same when they have fallen, by the gun.
Chorus2:
C
The Day The Sun Stood Still
G
And the North and South looked west
Am
But the evening star was sleepin?
F
And the daylight wouldn't rest
C
Out on the killin? floor
G
The red sun on the hill
Am
Shinin' down on all the dead men
F
With a strange and eerie chill
G C
The Day The Sun Stood Still.
Bb F
Do not judge, what you brother does
C
Till you've walked a mile
G
Rank by bloody file
Bb F G
Who's to say, if you'll run or stay, and f-ight.
Chrous3:
C
The Day The Sun Stood Still
G
Is just beneath the skin
Am
In the soul of every soldier
F
Every battle that he's in
C
The Day The Sun Stood Still
G
Will haunt your dreams at night
Am
And stalk your every sunrise
F
Though you will not know it till
G C
The Day The Sun Stood Still.
G
How they beat the bloody drums
Am
And the seconds moved like hours
F
But the sunset never comes
C
And the cannons shake the ground
G
And the bullets test your will
Am
Even shadows found no cover
F
On that Godforsaken hill
G C F
The Day The Sun Stood Still.
C F
The Day The Sun Stood Still
C F
The Day The Sun Stood Still
C
The Day The Sun Stood Still.
