	C	Am
	Many's the hour I've	lain by my window

	C	Am
and	thought of the people who	carried the burden

	C	Am
Who	marched in the strange fields in	search of an answers

	C	Am	G
And	ended their journeys an	unwilling	hero

	Am	Em	Am	G
	Here's a song to	those who are gone with	never a reason	why

	Em	Am
And a	toast of the wine at the	end of the line

	D7	G
And a	toll of the bell for the	next one to die

Back in the coal fields of old Harlan county

Some talked of the union, some talked of good wages

And they lined them up in the dark of the forests

And shot them down without asking no questions

Here's a song to those who are gone with never a reason why

And a toast of the wine to the end of the line

And a toll of the bell for the next one to die

And over the ocean, to the red Spanish soil

came the lincoln brigade with their dreams

But they fell in the fire of germany's bombing

And they fell 'cause no one would hear their sad warning

Here's a song to those who are gone with never a reason why

And a toast of the wine at the end of the line

And a toll of the bell for the next one to die

In old Alabama, in old MississippiTwo states of the union so often found guilty

They came on the busses, they came on the marches

And they lay in the jails or they fell by the highway

Here's a song to those who are gone with never a reason why

And a toast of the wine at the end of the line

And a toll of the bell for the next one to die

The state it was texas, the town it was Dallas

In the flash of a rifle a life was soon over

And nobody thought of the past million murders

And the long list of irony(?) had found a new champion

Here's a song to those who are gone with never a reason why

And a toast of the wine at the end of the line

And a toll of the bell for the next one to die
