Cadd9Cadd9

Verse:

     Cadd9Cadd9
soldier: they settled dust in your hair
Cadd9Cadd9
to watch you shake and shout it out.
Cadd9Cadd9
with our armaments bared
Cadd9Cadd9
we shed our bags and travel alls.


Cadd9Cadd9
from the lee of the wall
Cadd9Cadd9
he comes in the chang and the chariot
Cadd9Cadd9
and all his eunuchs in thrall
Cadd9Cadd9
can scarce lift his line and lariat.

BB
here com loose his hounds
A augmentedA
to blow me down.

Verse:

     Cadd9Cadd9
chaplain: and now stricken with pangs
   Cadd9Cadd9
that tear at our backs like thistle down
Cadd9Cadd9
the mirror's soft silver tain
Cadd9Cadd9
reflects our last and birthing hour
