"Servants And Kings"
from The Bastards Vol. 4

Capo 1


A
                D         E             F#m
Through rolling hills and many miles of blood
   A            D            E                   F#m
We slept in the rainfall and marched through the mud
    A        D        E          F#m
And you were not like anyone I'd known
    A            D           E          F#m
You spoke with impunity, had nothing to atone

   A     E            F#m              D
In quiet evenings you told me what you thought about
A             D             E          F#m
Servants and kings and how everyone is bought
        A         E        F#m           D
And how no one's hands are bloodier than God's
A     D                   E          A
And I won't be judged for doing as I ought


A

             D        E              F#m
It's hard to say just when I fell in love
      A       D           E          F#m
There was no epiphany, no light from above
    A       D       E             F#m
But you'd become my candle in the dark
    A                D                 E                F#m
And all through that hell you were the shield across my heart


     A       E             F#m               D
When all was fire, and the weather's out for blood
        A               D                    E               F#m
And the boys, still too young to drink, were drowned in the flood
    A         E              F#m             D
I'd hear you laughing as I'd come on out for air
A       D                  E               A
And I'd laugh with you, pretending that we care


A  Dsus4 D  A Dsus4 D


A                                                  Dsus4    D
Now twenty years have passed since the last time I saw you
A                                         Dsus4   D
When I kissed you on the mouth you walked away
A                                                  Dsus4        D
I knew that it'd be too much, I knew that it would scare you
A                                                      Dsus4    D
But I couldn't find the proper words for what I had to say
                        A
But I don't regret a thing
