     C            G             C            F           C  C7 
By a line that he drew with his sword as the battle drew nigh 
  F                         Em 
A man that crossed over the line was for glory 
    F                       C 
And he that was left better fly 
             G              C           F       C  C7 
And over the line crossed a hundred and seventy nine

Jim Bowie lay dying his blood and his powder run dry 
        C            G        C          F        C  C7 
But his knife at the ready to take him a few in reply 
F                       Em 
Young Davy Crockett lay laughing and dying  
    F                          C 
The blood and the sweat in his eyes 
              G         C            F          C  C7 
For Texas and freedom a man was more willing to die

And found only skin and bones where he once left a crowd 
F                          Em 
Fear not little darling of dying 
       F                      C 
If the world is sovereign and free 
                       G           C       F       C  C7 
For we'll fight to the last for as long as liberty be
