Its hard to [A]keep tears out of my [D]eyes
This might [A]be our last good[E]bye
Our country calls [A]you to defend a great [D]land
So do your [A]part [E]just like a [A]man
Down [A]where the river [D]bends
With god's [A]help we'll meet a[E]gain
Under the [A]same old sycamore [D]tree
Proud of each [A]other[E] and the land of the [A]free
Banjo
I go down to the ocean blue
Its just as close as I came to you
This old ocean might keep us apart
But it won't keep you dear out of my heart
If the worst should happen and the poppies should wave
Over your far distant, lonely grave
All the rest of my life I'll spend in prayer
I'll meet you in heaven, there'll be no war there
