[Verse 1]
Gm Cm Gm Dm
Bird, fly from the road, and quickly
Gm F Bb
Better hurry, or you're dead
G Cm
See that dust cloud coming thickly
D7 Gm
Horses charging far ahead
Gm Cm Gm Dm
Blasting, turning, fire pouring
Gm F Bb
Into crowds of enemies
G Cm
His machine gun rattling, roaring,
D7 Gm
Our young gunner clears the fields!
[Chorus]
F Bb
Hey, machine gun cart from Rostov
F Bb
You're our joy and you're our pride
Ab Gm
Red Cavalry gun-carts blast off,
Cm D7 Gm
Four wheels whirring as they ride!
F Bb
Hey, machine gun cart from Rostov
F Bb
You're our joy and you're our pride
Ab Gm
Red Cavalry gun-carts blast off,
Cm D7 Gm
Four wheels whirring as they ride!
[Verse 2]
Gm Cm Gm Dm
We crossed the Don after the Volga
Gm F Bb
Through the golden steppe so free!
G Cm
Tanned and dusty our young gunner
D7 Gm
Blasted through our enemy!
Gm Cm Gm Dm
As unstoppable and mighty
Gm F Bb
Like the manes of our wild steeds
G Cm
Manes of wind, smoke, storm, and fire,
D7 Gm
Slice our land ilke wind through reeds!
[Chorus]
F Bb
Hey, machine gun cart from Kiev
F Bb
You're our joy and you're our pride
Ab Gm
Machine gun from Amur screaming,
Cm D7 Gm
Four wheels spinning as they ride!
F Bb
Hey, Poltava gun cart raging,
F Bb
You're our joy and you're our pride
Ab Gm
Charge, machine gun cart, go racing,
Cm D7 Gm
Four wheels whirling as you ride!
