--1, I hung up chicken bone
A G D
On the old chandelier at the Sawdust Saloon
G D
Medical exam cleared me to fight
A G D
My mother said stay and I thought that I might
G D
When my brother said stay that's when I went
G D A
'Cause you never know who might go in your stead
G D
So I showed up on time to meet my platoon
G D A D
And hung up a bone in the Sawdust Saloon

G D
With Jimmy Tassone, I used to play ball
A G D
Now he sits here beside me and talks like a man
G D
Looks like a man, he says he shoots like a man
A G D
But no medal of honor could make his Mom move back in
G D
So he said, "My drunk father, I'll be back for you soon."
G D A D D7
But Jimmy still hangs in the Sawdust Saloon
G D
And I love my country with a deep frenzied love
G D A
Her legs spread out wide and her nose turned up
G D
So I showed up on time to meet my platoon
G D A D
And hung up a bone in the Sawdust Saloon

G D
The candle in the window, the coin in the well
A G D
The break in your voice, and the crack in the bell
G D
All raise up a round, without saying a word
A G D
To them old dusty bones and those good men that served
G D
Who showed up on time to meet the platoon
G D A D D
And hung up the bones at the Sawdust Saloon
