Manassas         The Fallen Eagle

 E
 Sing to the fallen eagle
             A 
 Helicopters fly
 A
 Chase him 'round the mountains
                   E
 Chase him 'til he dies

 They say that it's good sportin'
                    A
 Shootin' him on the wing

 Above the roar and clatter
                         E
 You can hear your rifle sing
 D         A                 E
 his death song it won't be long
 E
 Sing to the western rancher
                     A
 The eagle takes his land
                                             E
 He's got a  thousand  others he don't give a dam
                                           A
 Get up with  the sunrise everybody gather round
                                                      E    D    A
 Hit him with the first shot he'll turn and bring you down down down
              E
 Crash on the ground
 E                                        A
 Sing to the golden eagle  help is on the way
                                                  E
 A government team of experts  is rushing to your aid
                                        A
 I know your not excited an eagle is no where

 Fly on up to Canada
                   E        D     A          E  
 This country isn't safe anymore  that's for sure
