CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C G C G C F C G C
Mama, if [G]you could see me [C]now
I'm not the boy you knew in Macon [G]town[C]
They found a uniform about my size[F]
It's a little big I guess, but that's alright
[C]Mama, if [G]you could see me [C]now
Mama, they're [G]treating me right [C]well
The men all say I brought this good luck [G]spell[C]
I am the mascot of the Ninth Brigade[F]
They will not march unless I lead the way
[C]Mama, they're [G]treating me right [C]well
Mama, I [G]do not have a [C]gun
I'm only lucky when I'm banging on my [G]drum[C]
And I skinned a rabbit for the cook last night[F]
He said that I could keep his Bowie knife
[C]Mama, I [G]do not have a [C]gun
Mama, I [G]lost my arrow[C]head
It was big enough to strike a bobcat [G]dead[C]
Must've fallen when I climbed that tree[F]
Yankee fires as far as I could see
[C]Mama, I [G]lost my arrow[C]head
Mama, the [G]troops are falling [C]in
And we must move while we've still got the [G]wind[C]
The scouts are fanning out like whippoorwills[F]
Today we're marching over Bloody Hill
[C]Mama, the [G]troops are falling [C]in
INSTRUMENTAL: C G C G C F C G C
Mama, I [G]never thought I'd [C]run
But something happened when I saw those Yankees [G]come
Now [C]I've been running now a week or two[F]
Too ashamed to run back home to you
[C]Mama, I [G]never thought I'd [C]run_[F]_
Oh [C]Mama, I [G]never thought I'd [C]run_[F]_
Oh [C]Mama, I [G]never thought I'd [F]run___ [C]
