[D][G][D]
[D][G][D]

[Chorus 1]
You [D]fought all the way,
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, [A]Johnny [D]Reb[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Saw you a-marchin' with [G]Robert E. [D]Lee
You held your head a-high,
tryin' to [A]win the victory
You [G]fought for your folks
but you [D]didn't die in vain
Even though you lost,
they speak [G]highly of your [D]name

[Chorus 2]
'Cause you [D]fought all the way,
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, [A]Johnny [D]Reb[D]

[Verse 2]
I [D]heard your teeth chatter
from the [G]cold out[D]side
Saw the bullets open up
the [A]wounds in your side
I [G]saw the young boys as [D]they begin to fall
You had tears in your eyes,
'cause you [G]couldn't help at [D]all

[Chorus 3]
But you [D]fought all the way,
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, [A]Johnny [D]Reb[D]

[Verse 3]
I [D]saw General Lee raise the [G]sabre in his [D]hand
Heard the cannon's roar
as you [A]made your last stand
You [G]marched in the battle
with the [D]gray and the red
When the cannon's smoke cleared,
took [G]days to count the [D]dead

[Chorus 4]
'Cause you [D]fought all the way,
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, [A]Johnny [D]Reb[D]

[Verse 4]
When [D]Honest Abe heard the [G]news
about your [D]fall
The folks thought he'd call a [A]great victory ball
But [G]he asked the band to play the [D]song "Dixie"
For you Johnny Reb and [G]all that you be[D]lieved

[Chorus 5]
'Cause you [D]fought all the way,
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb
You fought all the way, [A]Johnny [D]Reb
[Repeat and fade]
