Cruel War (Peter Paul & Mary)

CAmDmG
The cruel war is raging, Johnny has to fight. I
CAmGAmCC
want to be with him, morning 'til night. I want
AmDmG
to be with him, it grieves my heart so. Won't
CAmGAmC
you let me go with you? No, my love, no.
CAmDmG
Tomorrow is Sunday, Monday is the day That your
CAmGAmC
captain will call you, and you must obey. Your
CAmDmG
captain will call you, it grieves my heart so.
CAmGAmC
Won't you let me go with you? No, my love, no.
CAmDm
I'll tie back my hair, men's clothing I'll put
GCAmGAm
on. I'll pass as your comrade, as we march
CCAmDm
along. I'll pass as your comrade, no one will
GCAmGAm
ever know. Won't you let me go with you? No, my
     
C
love, no.
CAmDmG
Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I fear you are unkind. I
CAmGAmCC
love you far better than all of mankind. I love
AmDmG
you far better than words can 'ere express.
CAmGAmC
Won't you let me go with you? Yes, my love, yes.
