[Verse 1]
[C]Int[G]o t[D]he [G]ward of
the clean whitewashed halls
[D]Where the dead [G]slept and
[D]the dying lay
[B]Wounded by bayonets,
[G]sabers, and [Em]balls
[A]Somebody's darling was
[D]born [A]one [D]day
Somebody's [G]darling,
so [D]young and so [G]brave
[C]Wearing [G]still on his [Am]sweet yet [D]pale [G]face
Soon to be hid in the [Em]dust
of [A]the grave[C#dim]
The [G]lingering [D]light of his
boyhood's [G]grace
Some[D]body's darlin',
somebody's [G]cryin'
[C]Who'll [G]tell his mother where
[D]her boy die[Am]d?[G]
Matted and damp are his
tresses of gold,
[D]Kissing the snow [G]off that [D]fair young brow.
[Bm]Pale [B]are the lips of most delicate mold,
[Em]Somebody[A]'s darling is dyin[D]g now.[A][D]
Back from his [G]beautiful
[D]purple -veined [G]brow,
[C]Brush off the [G]wandering [Am]waves [D]of [G]gold.
Cross his white hands
on [C]his broad bos[D]om [C#dim]now.
Some[G]body's [D]darlin' is still within re[G]cord
[D]Somebody's darlin',
somebody's [G]pride
[C]Who'll [G]tell his mother [D]where the
boy [G]died?[C][G]
Somebody's watching and
waiting for him,
[D]yearning to [G]hold him [D]again
to her breast.
[Bm]Yet there [B]he lies [C]with his [G]blue eyes so [Em]dim,
an[A]d purple childlike lips [D]half apart.
Tenderly [G]bury the [D]fair unknown [G]dead,
[C]pausing to [G]drop on his [Am]grave [D]a t[G]ear.
Carve on the wooden slab
[C]over [D]his [C#dim]head
some[G]body's [D]darling slumbering [G]here.
Some[D]body's darling,
somebody's [G]bride
[C]Who'll [G]tell his mother where
[D]the boy die[Am]d?[G][C][G]
you
