Marching Through Georgia chords
Henry Clay Work

G                                    C            G
Bring the good ol' Bugle boys, we'll sing another song
                                A7               D7
Sing it with a spirit that will start the world along
G               C               G     C        G
Sing it like we used to sing it fifty thousand strong,
D                              G
while we were marching through Georgia 

                   C             G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
                    D
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G              C           G              B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D             D7               G
while we were marching through Georgia. 

G                                 C                G
How the darkeys shouted when they heard the joyful sound
                                  A7         D7
How the turkeys gobbled which our commissary found
G             C             G       C        G
How the sweet potatoes even started from the ground,
D                              G
while we were marching through Georgia.

                   C             G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
                    D
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G              C           G              B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D             D7               G
while we were marching through Georgia.

G                                C                G
Yes and there were Union men who wept with joyful tears
                                        A7           D7
When they saw the honored flag they had not seen for years
G                 C                  G        C        G
Hardly could they be restrained from breaking forth in cheers,
D                              G
while we were marching through Georgia.

                   C             G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
                    D
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G              C           G              B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D             D7               G
while we were marching through Georgia. 

 G                                  C              G
"Sherman's dashing Yankee boys will never make the coast!"
                              A7              D7
So the saucy rebels said and 'twas a handsome boast
G            C                G      C        G
Had they not forgot, alas! to reckon with the host,
D                              G
while we were marching through Georgia.

                   C             G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
                    D
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G              C           G              B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D             D7               G
while we were marching through Georgia. 

G                             C               G
So we made a thoroughfare for freedom and her train,
                               A7             D7
sixty miles of latitude, three hundred to the main
G            C                G        C      G
Treason fled before us, for resistance was in vain,
D                              G
while we were marching through Georgia.

                   C             G
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the Jubilee.
                    D
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free
G              C           G              B7
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
D             D7               G
while we were marching through Georgia.
