CC7
And a hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die
G7C
By the line that he drew with his sword when the battle was nigh
FC
Any man that would fight to the death cross over
G7C
But him that would live better fly
G7C
And over the line went a hundred and seventy-nine
FEm
Hey Santa Anna we're killing your soldiers below
FCG7C
That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo
G7C
Oh Bowie lay dying his powder was ready and dry
G7C
Flat on his back Bowie killed him a few in reply
FC
And young Davy Crockett was singing and laughing
G7C
With gallantry fierce in his eye
G7C
For God and for freedom a man more than willing to die
FEm
Hey Santa Anna we're killing your soldiers below
FCG7C
That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo
G7C
They sent a young scout from the battlements bloody and loud
G7C
With words of farewell from a garrison valiant and proud
FC
Grieve not little darling my dying
G7C
If Texas is sovereign and free
G7C
We'll never surrender and ever with liberty be
FEm
Hey Santa Anna we're killing your soldiers below
FCG7C
That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo
