Willie Nelson – Remember The Alamo (Guitar)

G
A hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die

G
By the line that he drew with his sword when the battle was nigh

C                               Bm
The man who would fight to the death crossed over

Am                             G
And him who would live, better fly

G
And over the line went a hundred and seventy-nine

C                                           Bm
Ay, Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!

C                      G
That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo

G
Though Bowie lay dying his powder was ready and dry

G
From flat on his back, Bowie killed him a few in reply

C                               Bm
And brave David Crockett was singing and laughing

Am                          G
With gallantry fierce in his eyes

G
For God and for freedom, a man more than willing to die

C                                           Bm
Ay, Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!

C                      G
That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo

G
They sent a young scout through the battle much bloody and loud

G
With the words of farewell from a garrison valiant and proud

C                               Bm
Don't grieve little darling, my dying, if Texas is sovereign and free

G
We'll never surrender and ever with liberty be

C                                           Bm
Ay, Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below!

C                      G
That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo

G
Will remember the Alamo

G
Will remember.
