Verse 1
Gm F
Oh musket and cannon have torn his gray coat

Don't he look fine and handsome

My poor Johnny Boy's Bones
Chorus
Gm F
Well who will bring back my Johnny Boy's Bones
D7 Gm
To lay beneath the trees of his Tennessee home
Gm F
A box, a box made of sturdy white oak
D7 Gm
With his arms folded up and his blue eyes all closed
Verse 2
Gm
Well he died for his country
F
And he died for his kin
D7
And he died killing men

But them mean boys in blue

They done turned him in

When they laid him low
Gm
With a laugh and a grin
