[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Bb Bbmaj7sus2
It's Decoration Day
Gm Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And I've a mind to roll a stone on his grave
Bb Bbmaj7sus2
But what would he say
Fm D# D# Fm
"Keeping me down, boy, won't keep you away"
Bb Bbmaj7sus2
It's Decoration Day
Gm Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And I knew the Hill Boys would put him away
Bb Bbmaj7sus2
But my Daddy wasn't afraid
Fm D# D# Fm
He said "We'd fight till the last Lawson's last living day"
[Verse 1]
---------------------
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
I never knew how it all got started
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
A problem with a Holland before we were born
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And I don't know the name of that boy we tied down
D# D# Fm
And beat 'til he just couldn't walk anymore
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
But I know the caliber in daddy's chest
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
I know what Holland Hill drives
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
The state let him go, but I guess it was best
D# D# Fm
'Cause nobody needs all us Lawson's alive

Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
Daddy said one of the boys had come by
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
The lumber man's favorite son
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
He said "Beat him real good, but don't dare let him die
D# D# Fm
And if you see Holland Hill run"
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
Now I said, "They ain't give us trouble before
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
That we ain't brought down on ourselves"
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
But a chain on my back and my ear to the floor
D# D# Fm
And I'll send all the Hill Boys to hell
D# D# Fm
I'll send all the Hill Boys to hell yeah...

Bb Bbmaj7sus2
It's Decoration Day
Gm Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And I've got a family in Mobile Bay
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And they've never seen my daddy's grave
D# D# Fm
But that don't bother me, it ain't marked anyway
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
'Cause I got dead brothers in Lauderdale South
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And I got dead brothers in the East Tennessee
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And my Daddy got shot right in front of his house
D# D# Fm
He had no one to fall on but me
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Bb Bbmaj7sus2
It's Decoration Day
Gm Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
And I've a mind to go spit on his grave
Bb Bbmaj7sus2 Gm
If I was a Hill, I'd have to put him away
D# D# Fm
And I'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day
D# D# Fm
I'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day
D# D# Fm
I'd fight 'til the last Lawson's last living day.
