C F C F
 
        C
We were young and bound for glory  
        F
Itchin' for a fight like you  
         G
Bringin' hell and purgatory  
       Em
To the boys who wore the Blue  
      F                   G
And I thought I'd seen it all  
         Em                 Am
Till the day night wouldn't fall  
           F
Oh how the sun did blaze  
            G
Wouldn't go down for days.  
 
      C
I got shot and lost my rifle  
         F
When the first wave hit the rise  
        G
And the guns rolled out like thunder  
        Em
And the black smoke burned my eyes  
      F                G
And I watched it all unfold  
         Em            Am
Just the way the Bible told  
         F
Joshua's endless day  
            G
Keepin' the night at bay. 
 
        Am
And the soldiers kept a comin'  
        F
Til the ground looked like a sea  
            G
Of Blue and Grey  
      Am
And I watched it from a distance  
          F                            G
Wonderin' if I would've fought, or run away. 
 
Chorus:
                      C
The Day The Sun Stood Still 
                         G
How they beat the bloody drums  
                           Am
And the seconds moved like hours  
                     F
But the sunset never comes  
                          C
And the cannons shake the ground  
                          G
And the bullets test your will  
                      Am
Even shadows found no cover  
                    F
On that Godforsaken hill  
    G                 C      F
The Day The Sun Stood Still. 
 
      C
And I watched them lean their shoulders  
To the fearful hail of lead
      G
And I prayed for night to save us  
      Em
And I cried and bowed my head  
        F               G
But the sun just kept a-creepin' 
        Em               Am
Cross a cold indifferent sky  
          F
Castin' a deadly glow  
           G
On all the men below.  
 
        Am
All the hours in a lifetime 
          F                               G
Don't add up to one while minute, in that s-un 
        Am
And the heroes and the cowards  
         F                                  G
Look the same when they have fallen, by the gun.  
 
Chorus2:
                      C
The Day The Sun Stood Still 
                               G
And the North and South looked west  
                         Am
But the evening star was sleepin? 
                          F
And the daylight wouldn't rest  
                   C
Out on the killin? floor  
                   G
The red sun on the hill  
                        Am
Shinin' down on all the dead men  
                         F
With a strange and eerie chill 
    G                 C
The Day The Sun Stood Still. 
 
Bb                     F
Do not judge, what you brother does  
C
Till you've walked a mile  
G
Rank by bloody file  
Bb                      F                G
Who's to say, if you'll run or stay, and f-ight.  
 
Chrous3:
                      C
The Day The Sun Stood Still 
                    G
Is just beneath the skin  
                     Am
In the soul of every soldier 
                       F
Every battle that he's in  
                      C
The Day The Sun Stood Still 
                          G
Will haunt your dreams at night  
                     Am
And stalk your every sunrise  
                            F
Though you will not know it till 
    G                 C
The Day The Sun Stood Still.  
 
                         G
How they beat the bloody drums  
                           Am
And the seconds moved like hours  
                     F
But the sunset never comes  
                          C
And the cannons shake the ground  
                          G
And the bullets test your will  
                      Am
Even shadows found no cover  
                    F
On that Godforsaken hill  
    G                 C      F
The Day The Sun Stood Still. 
 
                      C     F
The Day The Sun Stood Still 
                      C     F
The Day The Sun Stood Still 
                      C
The Day The Sun Stood Still.
