     This is the story of Bobby and June 
Fm                     A                                 E        Esus 
     A boy and a girl who kidnapped the moon 
B                                          A 
     But they fell in love to the sound of guns 
Fm                       A                    E      Esus E 
     The year was eightteen sixty-one 
 
The army came looking for men to recruit 

Dressin? boys up like soldiers in blue Union suits 

Take this sword and cut down Johnny Reb They said 

You?ll come back a hero or you?ll come back dead 
 A                   B 
Stay with me Bobby 
                A                    B 
Don?t go away from me now 
                 A                  B 
I want you say that you love me 
                 A                   B 
Don?t go away from me now 
                     E      Esus E 
I want you to stay  

Now Bobby he marched to the eye of the storm 

The blue coats were falling the blood was still warm 

A battle was raging and the only thing in his eyes 

Was the thought of his June and making it home alive 
 
His army outnumbered they started to run 

When Bobby went down with the crack of a gun 

And as he lay still his face sinking in the rain 

He knew that he never and ever would see June again 
 
(Chorus) 

Stay with me Bobby 

Don?t go away from me now 

I want you say that you love me 

Don?t go away from me now 

I want you to stay 
 
    It was the morning of Christmas when June heard a sound 

    Of someone approaching their boots scraping on the ground 

    As she looked out the window her heart pounded in her breast 
Fm                         A                                  Esus       E
     A broken young Bobby was clutching a wounded chest 
 

C#m               
     She ran out to help ease his pain 
A 
     He looked up and whispered her name 
C#m                                                                        A 
     Then she cradled his head in her arms and he smiled 
                     B                             
     When he heard his June say 
 
(Chorus) 
Stay with me Bobby 
Don?t go away from me now 
I want you say that you love me 
Don?t go away from me now 
I want you to stay 
I want you to stay
