[Verse]
   Dm                                 A#             A
Oh pass the rum on down the line it's getting pretty cold
          Dm                                     A#           A
It's been nine straight days of hell and burning fires in the snow
      Dm                              A#                 A
And I haven't seen my baby since that old black ship set sail
      Dm                                      A#         A            Dm
Still we're holding out 'till winter dies and hoping our strength prevails
 
Dm A# A
Dm A# A Dm
 
[Verse]
    Dm                                A#                 A
The full moon peaks around the clouds as the grey wolves cry
    Dm                                  A#           A
The hour's getting late and we've drunk every bottle dry
     Dm                                           A#      A
Just one more march from dusk 'till dawn 'till we finally arrive
       Dm                                     A#         A        Dm
At the gates of those who long ago burned our houses and took our lives
 
[Chorus]
 
And we'll sing
 Dm                         A#              A
"We are the Dead South who came across the sea
    Dm                                 A#  A       Dm
To take back our lives and leave this land of misery
     Dm          A#         A              Dm
Our will is our weapon our hearts forever bound
             Dm               A#                 A           Dm
Come on now tilt your bottle back and let's go grab another round
 
[Verse]
    Dm                                  A#            A
The wind is at our back the ground is shaking at our feet
 Dm                                 A#              A
Marching for the gates we pray the lord my soul to keep
    Dm                             A#             A
For if we ever get ourselves out from this mess alive
         Dm                                     A#    A     Dm
I'll be singing this song for years to say I'm happy we survived
 
[Chorus]
 
And we'll sing
 Dm                         A#              A
"We are the Dead South who came across the sea
    Dm                                 A#  A       Dm
To take back our lives and leave this land of misery
     Dm          A#         A              Dm
Our will is our weapon our hearts forever bound
             Dm               A#                 A           Dm
Come on now tilt your bottle back and let's go grab another round
 Dm               A#                 A           Dm
tilt your bottle back and let's go grab another round
 
[Chorus]
 Dm                         A#              A
"We are the Dead South who came across the sea
    Dm                                 A#  A       Dm
To take back our lives and leave this land of misery
     Dm          A#         A              Dm
Our will is our weapon our hearts forever bound
             Dm               A#                 A           Dm
Come on now tilt your bottle back and let's go grab another round

tilt your bottle back and let's go grab another round
