Bury Me Far (From My Uniform) Joe Pug
The whole song wasn't put up. So here's the rest.
Capo 2
[D]
I was [D]fallen dead in battle
[D]Must've been Tu[G]esday, I don't know the da[D]te
I gave [Bm]everything everyone a[G]sked for
But[G] I'll say where I'll [D]be laid
[D7]The many dead of my co[G]mrades
[G]All look the same in this [D]place
Won't you b[D]ury me far from[G] my unifo[D]rm
So [D]God might re[A]member my f[D]ace
[D] [A] [D] [A]
Do n[D]ot bother with Congress
[D]With the r[G]ich or with the r[D]est
I fought [Bm]their battles in [G]this world
But[G] I'll not fight for them in [D]the next
[D7]Do not find me j[G]ustice
[G]Just find me a g[D]rave
And then [D]bury me far from m[G]y unifo[D]rm
So[D] God might rem[A]ember my [D]face
[D] [A] [D] [A]
My mo[D]ther, my mother you'll cry for me
[D]You'll we[G]ep, with the next of our [D]kin
You must [Bm]promise never to t[G]hink of
What [B]is not, and what could have b[D]een
[D7]I'll not return to your [G]table
[G]So don't save me a p[D]lace
Just bu[D]ry me far from [G]my unif[D]orm
From the [G]iron cross medals I [D]would've worn
From the [G]statues that sisters and[D] widows mourn
From the [G]newspaper clippin's and m[D]icroform
From Ge[G]neva, The Hague and [D]Nuremberg
From the [D]sex of this world that I'll [G]no longer taste
Won't you [D]bury me far from my unif[G]orm
So G[D]od might reme[A]mber my fa[G]ce
Oh G[D]od will reme[A]mber my fa[G]ce
G D A G (quick)A (end with) D
Merciful God, please remember my face
