The Hills of Shiloh
[Verse 1]
Have you seen Amanda Blaine
In the hills of Shiloh?
Walking in the morning rain
In the hills of Shiloh?
Have you seen her at her door
Listening for the cannon's roar
And a man who went to war
From the hills of Shiloh?
[Verse 2]
Have you seen her standing there
In the hills of Shiloh?
Wind a-blowing through her hair
In the hills of Shiloh?
Listening for the sound of guns
Listening for the rolling drums
And a man who never comes
To the hills of Shiloh?
[Verse 3]
Have you seen Amanda's eyes
In the hills of Shiloh?
Have you heard her mournful cries
In the hills of Shiloh?
Have you seen her running down
Searching through the sleeping town
In her yellowed wedding gown
In the hills of Shiloh?
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Have you heard Amanda sing
In the hills of Shiloh?
Whisper to her wedding ring
In the hills of Shiloh?
Heard her humming soft and low
Poor Amanda doesn't know
'Twas ended forty years ago
In the hills of Shiloh
