Chords with lyrics

Verse:

E minorEm          D MajorD
Once upon a time my existence
   A minorAm     H7     E minorEm
Was defined by ambition and trade
     G+G
Now it’s gone just like this
       Hm    D MajorD
The remnants of the exodus
   C majorC     A minorAm     E minorEm
At a loss, all alone and afraid


Chorus:

  Asus2Asus2      E minorEm
The fire has left me long ago
   C majorC   G+G      D MajorD
Once I was bristlin and brave
    C majorC
Now I’m destined to wither
   G+G     E minorEm
On an errand of fools
    A minorAm    H7    G+G      D MajorD
And to lie in a mariners grave,  yeah

Interlude:

E minorEm E minorEm D MajorD  D MajorD
A minorAm H7 H7


Verse:

   E minorEm
I was worn with the stress
    D MajorD
And the weight of progress
    A minorAm     H7     E minorEm
In the foremost uncertain of days
  G+G
Comatose, dark & still
     Hm         D MajorD
Have the means but lost the will
      C majorC    A minorAm    E minorEm
To take the fight to imposing ways


Chorus:

  Asus2Asus2      E minorEm
The fire has left me long ago
   C majorC   G+G      D MajorD
Once I was bristlin and brave
    C majorC
Now I’m destined to wither
   G+G     E minorEm
On an errand of fools
    A minorAm    H7    G+G      D MajorD
And to lie in a mariners grave,  Hey-ey

Verse:

   C majorC        G+G
Once I was branded in gold
  E minorEm  G+G      C majorC
Now I’m abandoned and sold
           G+G
Servant, sentinel and slave
     A minorAm    H    G+G
Doomed to lie in a mariners grave
   C majorC        G+G
Once I was a summer domain
  E minorEm  G+G    C majorC
Now only winter remains
           G+G
Drawn, quartered and flayed
     A minorAm    H    G+G
