[Intro] E Esus4 E E Esus4 E [Verse 1]
F#m         A                  E  Esus4 E
This is the story of Bobby and June

F#m         A                      E  
A boy and a girl who kidnapped the moon

B
But they fell in love

       A
To the sound of guns

F#m          A     E Esus4 E
The year was 1861
[Verse 2]
F#m           A                  E     Esus4 E
The army came looking for men to recruit

F#m                   A                      E
Dressin’ boys up like soldiers in blue Union suits

B                                   A
Take this sword and cut down Johnny Reb They said

F#m                A                        E   Esus4 E
You’ll come back a hero or you’ll come back dead
[Chorus]
Aadd9        Badd11
Stay with me Bobby

         Aadd9        Badd11      
Don’t go away from me now

           Aadd9        Badd11
I want you say that you love me

         Aadd9        Badd11
Don’t go away from me now

              E   Esus4 E
I want you to stay
E Esus4 E [Verse 3]
F#m          A                         E    Esus4 E
Now Bobby he marched to the eye of the storm

F#m                 A                           E
The blue coats were falling the blood was still warm

B                                      A
A battle was raging and the only thing in his eyes

F#m                    A                  E       Esus4 E
Was the thought of his June and making it home alive
[Verse 4]
F#m         A                        E  Esus4 E
His army outnumbered they started to run

F#m             A                        E  
When Bobby went down with the crack of a gun

B                                    A
And as he lay still his face sinking in the rain

F#m             A                    E        Esus4  E
He knew that he never and ever would see June again
[Chorus]
Aadd9        Badd11
Stay with me Bobby

         Aadd9        Badd11
Don’t go away from me now

           Aadd9        Badd11
I want you say that you love me

         Aadd9        Badd11
Don’t go away from me now

              E   Esus4 E
I want you to stay
E Esus4 E [Verse 5]
F#m                   A                           E    Esus4 E
It was the morning of Christmas when June heard a sound

F#m        A                                E
Of someone approaching their boots scraping on the ground

B                                              A
As she looked out the window her heart pounded in her breast

F#m            A                     E     Esus4  E
A broken young Bobby was clutching a wounded chest
[Bridge]
C#m
She ran out to help ease his pain

A
He looked up and whispered her name

C#m                                          A
Then she cradled his head in her arms and he smiled

B
When he heard his June say
[Chorus]
Aadd9        Badd11
Stay with me Bobby

         Aadd9        Badd11
Don’t go away from me now

           Aadd9        Badd11
I want you say that you love me

         Aadd9        Badd11
Don’t go away from me now

              E   Esus4 E
I want you to stay
E Esus4 E
              E   Esus4 E
I want you to stay
E Esus4 E
