Cavalry chords by Mandolin Orange

capo 2nd fret

I've seen them live and watched a video to confirm that this is how Emily plays it.  Capo 2, starts in C
(relative to the capo) which makes it easier to "walk" down from C to B to A etc.  Also they love the sound
of Fmaj7 which is in a lot of their songs.  Enjoy!

Verse:

           C          C/B         Am7          C/G        F
Well I've carried the world on my back with no more to obtain
    Dm                 Dm                               G
The fire in the sky, a dim light in my eye that's long faded
        C          C/B         Am7           C/G             F
And I stood where heroes have fallen, their names turned to stone
    Dm                     Dm                      G
Yet I remain nameless, the best friend a hero has known


Chorus:

            Am        C           Fmaj7
   Now I'm saving my strength for running
           C       C/B       Am7     C/G      F
   These days I'm saving my strength     for running


Verse 2:

          C      C/B        Am7     C/G        F
From the age of kings, when pride decided all fate
        Dm                      Dm                 G
Long before war machines took charge and I was to wait
           C             C/B         Am7          C/G      F
If you flying hope and blinders and young men to carry obtain
         Dm            Dm                                G
All the death and the glory, believing their one in the same


Chorus:

            Am        C            Fmaj7
   Now I'm saving my strength for running
           C       C/B       Am7     C/G      F
   These days I'm saving my strength     for running


Verse 3:

           C          C/B         Am7          C/G        F
Yes I've carried the world on my back with no more to obtain
      Dm                    Dm                        G
The sword and the shield, pursed upon saddles and reigns
           C           C/B         Am7       C/G            F
But the stampedes of thunder, the Calvary’s charge leads me now
          Dm                     Dm                    G
And your last war will come, but I cannot follow you down


Chorus:

            Am        C            Fmaj7
   No I'm saving my strength for running
           C       C/B       Am7     C/G      F
   These days I'm saving my strength     for running
              C       C/B        Am7    C/G      F
I said these days I'm saving my strength   for running
