Lake Fork Verne — Concord 1777

    	    	Вступление



   D                    G          D
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
                             A
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled;
     D                  G       D
Here once the embattled farmers stood;
    E7                             A
And fired the shot heard round the world.

    D              G          D
The foe long since in silence slept;
                           A
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps,
    D               G          D
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
     E7                           A
Down the dark stream that seaward creeps.

   D                G            D
On this green bank, by this soft stream,
                       A
We set to-day a votive stone on,
     D          G           D
That memory may their deeds redeem,
                      A            D
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

  G                          D
O Thou who made those heroes dare
                                 A
To die, and leave their children free, --
     D        G             D
Bide Time and Nature gently spare
                       A        D
The shaft we raised to them and Thee.

     D                  G       D
Here once the embattled farmers stood;
    A7                             D
And fired the shot heard round the world.
