Come And Take It

Em Am deep in the heart of texas, back in 1835 Am Em the folks of gonzales had freedom on their mind Em it was all because of a cannon Am that had kept their colony safe Am but then general santa anna sent some mexican troops Em to take the big gun away B7 you know what those colonists said? Em come and take it if you want it! Em B7 come and take it if you think you can! Em Am come and take it but we'll warn you Em Am Em you'll have to pry it from our cold dead hands Am Em we want the freedom that God gave us Am Em so you best not cross that line Am Em if you want this gun, you gotta come through us Am B7 Em and take it one shot at a time Em well that started a revolution Am that no one could put down Am like a wildfire for freedom Em Am Em that burns even now Am Em you see, even if you got an army Am Em when all is said and done Am Em you just dont mess with texas B7 Em especially when it comes to guns the mexicans went home without that cannon Em come and take it if you want it! Em B7 come and take it if you think you can! Em Am come and take it but we'll warn you Am Em Am Em you'll have to pry it from our cold dead hands Am Em we want the freedom that god gave us Em Am Em so you best not cross that line Em Am Em B7 if you want this gun you gotta come through us and take it B7 Em one shot at a time Am Em now i know the constitution Em Am B7 and it gives me certain rights Em but i will never ever give up B7 at least not without a fight Am Em so if anyones even thinkin' Am Em they're gonna take my guns away Am Em like the good ol' boys down in Gonzales B7 i got one thing to say comon make my day!
