RICHMMOND ON THE JAMES
As recorded by Alison Krauss & Union Station

(2025 release)
Capo 2nd fret

[Intro]
Am G Am G Am G
Am G Am

[Verse 1]
Am G
Our land is filled with mourning
Am
From Bourbon to Malone
G
And many wives and mothers
G
Are weeping, sad and lone
Am G
For many youthful heroes
G
Are among the noble slain
Am G
On a blood-red field near Richmond
Am
Fair Richmond on the James

[Verse 2]
Am G
A soldier boy at Richmond
Am
Lay gasping on the field
Em
The battle strife was over
G D
And the foe was forced to yield
Am Em
But fell one noble hero
G D
Before the foe-man's aim
Am G
On the blood-stained field at Richmond
Am
Fair Richmond on the James

[Interlude]
G Am G Am G
