THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY
2006 ENDA CULLEN & TIM WHEELER

VERSE 1

TRADIN' FIRE FROM OH SO MANY GUNS
WHERE 'ERE THEY'RE FROM THOSE MEN KNEW HOW TO DIE
AT GETTYSBURG THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY

VERSE 2

DEAD FATHERS, BROTHERS, UNCLES, NEPHEWS, SONS
SINCE THEY LAY DOWN A SUMMER'S PASSED US BY
SINCE GETTYSBURG THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY

BRIDGE
TODAY ABE LINCOLN STOOD-BEFORE A VAST 'N SILENT CROWD
O'ER THIS SACRED FIELD HIS WORDS RAN CLEAR'N LOUD
DECLARIN' IT'S ON HALLOWED GROUND WE STAND
HOLY BY THE BLOOD OF EVERY FALLEN MAN
EVERY FALLEN MAN

VERSE 3
POLITICIANS WITH FINE LADIES HOLDIN' HANDS
PRETENDIN' THEY WERE PART O' HOW IT RAN
THEY WERE NOWHERE WHILE OUR INNOCENCE BLED DRY
AT GETTYSBURG THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY

INSTRUMENTAL
IT SURELY IS ON HALLOWED GROUND WE STAND
HOLY BY THE BLOOD OF EVERY FALLEN MAN
EVERY FALLEN MAN

VERSE 4)

IF THAT AIN'T TRUE IN LIFE, IT'S SURELY TRUE IN DEATH
THEY EARNED A SOLDIERS PEACE WHEREIN THEY LIE
AT GETTYSBURG THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY
AT GETTYSBURG THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY

TAG
THEY EARNED A SOLDIERS PEACE WHERE IN THEY LIE
AT GETTYSBURG THOSE THREE DAYS IN JULY
