lyrics

The Last Campaign John Stewart

(F) (Bb) (Gm) (Dm) (C)
It was (F)more than Indi(Bb)ana,
It was (Gm)more than (Dm)South Da(C)kota,
It was (F)more than Cali(Bb)fornia,
It was (Gm)more than (Dm) Ore(C)gon.
It was a (Dm)race against (F)time,
It was (Bb)always (F)on our (C)minds,
And he (F)died (Bb)on the (Am)road. (G) (C)

We were (F)tired, we were (Bb)hungry,
We were (Gm)living (Dm)on a (C)dream,
For (F)all forgotten (Bb)people,
Never (Gm)heard and (Dm)never (C)seen,
That there (Dm)would come a (F)time,
For a (Bb)moment (F)they would (C)shine,
And it (F)died (Bb)on the (Am)road. (G)

(Bb)Truly as the (F)sun,
(A)Truly as the (Dm)rain,
(Bb)Truly (C)I be(F)lie(Dm)ve
That it (Bb)was the (C)last cam(F)paign.
(Bb)Truly as the (F)sun,
(A)Truly as the (Dm)rain,
(Bb)Truly (C)I be(F)lie(Dm)ve
That it (Bb)was the (C)last cam(F)paign.

It was more than Indi(Bb)ana,
It was (Gm)more than (Dm)South Da(C)kota,
It was (F)more than Cali(Bb)fornia,
It was (Gm)more than (Dm) Ore(C)gon.
It was a (Dm)race against (F)time,
It was (Bb)always (F)on our (C)minds,
And he (F)died (Bb)on the (Am)road. (G)

(Bb)Truly as the (F)sun,
(A)Truly as the (Dm)rain,
(Bb)Truly (C)I be(F)lie(Dm)ve
That it (Bb)was the (C)last cam(F)paign.
(Bb)Truly as the (F)sun,
(A)Truly as the (Dm)rain,
(Bb)Truly (C)I be(F)lie(Dm)ve
That it (Bb)was the (C)last cam(F)paign.

The way I usually play it, key of F, key of G is also nice.

Jan Hauenstein Göttingen, Germany

More than background music.
You'll hear folk, blues, jazzy songs, rock. Big voice. Albums recommended by Gordon Bok, Harvey Andrews, Jez Lowe and others.

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year... ... more
