southern part of
Texas, [G]near the town of
San
Antonio,
[Am]Stands a fortress all in [C]ruins that the
[Am]weeds [G]have overgrown.[Am]
You may look in vain for crosses,
[G]and you'll never see a one,
[Am]But sometimes between the setting
and the [E]rising [G]of the [C]sun,
You can hear a [G]ghostly [C]bugle
as the [Em]men go marching by
[C]You can hear [G]them as they [Am]answer
to the roll call in the sky
Colon[Bb]el

[Am]Texas and from [C]old
Tennessee
[G]And with [Am]them came young
[G]Smitty [Dm]just to [Am]fight for the [Dm]right to be [E]free
En[Am]gine scouts with squirrel guns,
men with muzzle loaders
Stood together [C]heel and
toe [Am]to defend the

[Am]You may [C]never see your l[Am]oved ones,
Travis [C]told them that [G]day
Those who [Am]want to can [G]leave now

let him [E]stay[Am]
[G]One [Am]hundred eighty -five brave men
Holding back five thousand
Five days, six days, [C]eight days, ten
Trav[Am]is held and he[E]ld again
[Am]Then he [C]sent for replace[Am]ments
For his [C]wounded and his [G]lame
But [Am]the troops that were [G]coming
[Dm]Never [Am]came, never [Dm]came, never [E]came
Twice [Am]he charred and blew recall
on the fatal third time
Santana [C]breaks the wall [Am]and
he killed them [E]one by [Am]all
Now the [C]bugles are si[Am]lent and
the [C]rust on each [G]sword
And the [Am]small band of [G]soldiers
lie [Am]asleep in the arms of the

In the southern part of
Texas [G]near the town of
San
