(Original Key: E)
Intro:
D Dsus4 D (x2)
Verse 1:
Em G D Dsus4 D This is the story of Bobby and June. Em G D A boy and a girl who kidnapped the moon. A G But they fell in love to the sounds of guns, Em G D Dsus4 D The year was Eighteen Sixty One.
Verse 2:
Em G D Dsus4 D The army came looking for men to re-cruit. Em G D Dsus4 Dressin' boys up like soldiers in blue Union suits. A G Take this sword and cut down Johnny Reb, they said. Em G D Dsus4 D You'll come back a hero, or you'll come back dead.
Chorus 1:
G A G A Stay with me Bobby; don't go a-way from me now. G A G A I want you say that you love me; don't go a-way from me now. G D I want you to stay.
Interlude:
D Dsus4 D (x2)
Verse 3:
Em G D Dsus4 D Now Bobby he marched to the eye of the storm, Em G D The blue coats were falling; the blood was still warm. A G A battle was raging, and the only thing in his eyes, Em G Dsus4 D Was the thought of his June and making it home a-live.
Verse 4:
Em G D Dsus4 D His army out-numbered; they started to run. Em G D Dsus4 When Bobby went down with the crack of a gun. A G And as he lay still his face sinking in the rain, Em G Dsus4 D He knew that he never and ever would see, June a-gain.
Chorus 2:
G A G A Stay with me Bobby; don't go a-way from me now. G A G A I want you say that you love me; don't go a-way from me now. G D I want you to stay.
Interlude:
D Dsus4 D (x2)
Verse 5:
Em G D Dsus4 D It was the morning of Christmas when June heard a sound, Em G D Dsus4 Of someone ap-proaching, their boots scraping on the ground. A G As she looked out the window her heart pounded in, her breast, Em G Dsus4 D A broken young Bobby was clutching a wounded chest.
Break:
Bm She ran out to help ease his pain. G He looked up and whispered her name. Bm G Then she cradled his head in her arms and he smiled, A When he heard his June say...
Chorus 3:
G A G A Stay with me Bobby; don't go a-way from me now. G A G A I want you say that you love me; don't go a-way from me now. G D I want you to stay.
Outro:
D Dsus4 D (x2)
D Dsus4 D, D Dsus4, D I want you to stay.
