[Verse]
   Dm                                 Bb             A
Oh pass the rum on down the line it's getting pretty cold

          Dm                                     Bb           A
It's been nine straight days of hell and burning fires in the snow

      Dm                              Bb                 A
And I haven't seen my baby since that old black ship set sail

      Dm                                      Bb         A            Dm
Still we're holding out 'till winter dies and hoping our strength prevails
Dm Bb A Dm Bb A Dm [Verse]
    Dm                                Bb                 A
The full moon peaks around the clouds as the grey wolves cry

    Dm                                  Bb           A
The hour's getting late and we've drunk every bottle dry

     Dm                                           Bb      A
Just one more march from dusk 'till dawn 'till we finally arrive

       Dm                                     Bb         A        Dm
At the gates of those who long ago burned our houses and took our lives
[Chorus] And we'll sing
 Dm                         Bb              A
"We are the Dead South who came across the sea

    Dm                                 Bb  A       Dm
To take back our lives and leave this land of misery

     Dm          Bb         A              Dm
Our will is our weapon our hearts forever bound

             Dm               Bb                 A           Dm
Come on now tilt your bottle back and let's go grab another round
[Verse]
    Dm                                  Bb            A
The wind is at our back the ground is shaking at our feet

 Dm                                 Bb              A
Marching for the gates we pray the lord my soul to keep

    Dm                             Bb             A
For if we ever get ourselves out from this mess alive

         Dm                                     Bb    A     Dm
I'll be singing this song for years to say I'm happy we survived
[Chorus] And we'll sing
 Dm                         Bb              A
