[Verse 1]

Shine Marley was a grey coat soldier, proud as he was poor

Yankees more

Rode off on a sway back mule, early on one frosty morn'
E B7 E
Died on the field at Shiloh, 21 years from the day he was born

Oh my soul cries out for Nora, all up and down the line

Oh my soul cries out for Nora, wake up darlin’, it’s ole Shine

Old times there were long forgotten, after Shine’s last stand

Nora Jane was left to face the years alone in the ruins of Dixieland

There was none so fair, and never one so true

At night he climbs her stairs to dust the Shiloh on his shoes

Yeah my soul cries out for Nora, she shall remain forever mine

Oh my soul cries out for Nora, wake up darlin’ it’s ole Shine
