[Verse 1]
Am Dm
Now first I thought a snake had got me
Am E7
It happened dreadful quick
Am Dm Am E7 Am
T'was a bullet bit my leg, right off I got sick
Am Dm Am E7
I came to in a wagon load of ten more wounded men
Am Dm Am E7 Am
Five was dead by the time we reached that bloody tent

[Chorus 1]
C F
Give me some of that Soldier's Joy
C G7
You know what I mean
C F C Gsus/B Am
I don't want to hurt no more, my leg is turning green

[Verse 2]
Am Dm
The the doctor came and looked at me
Am E7
And this is what he said
Am Dm
Your dancing days are done, son
Am E7 Am
It's a good thing you ain't dead
Am Dm
Then he went to work with a carving knife
Am E7
Sweat fell from his brow
Am Dm
'Bout killed me trying to save my life
Am E7 Am
When he cut that lead ball out

[Chorus 2]
C F
Gimme some of that Soldier's Joy
C G7
Ain't you got no more
C F
Hand me down my walking cane
Gsus/B Am
I ain't cut out for war

[Verse 3]
Am Dm
Red blood run right through my veins,
Am E7
run all over the floor
Run all over the floor
Am Dm
Run right down his apron strings
And it run right down his apron strings
Am E7 Am
Like a river out the door
Am Dm
He handed me a bottle, said
Am E7
Son drink deep as you can
Am Dm
He turned away and he turned right back
Am E7 Am
With a hacksaw in his hand

[Chorus 3]
C F C G7
Gimme some of that Soldier's Joy, you know what I like
C F C Gsus/B Am
Bear down on that fiddle boys just like Saturday night
C F C G7
Gimme some of that Soldier's Joy, you know what I crave
C F C Gsus/B Am
I'll be hitting that Soldier's Joy till I'm in my grave
C Gsus/B Am
till I'm in my grave.....
