[Intro]
Bm Bm
Bm Bm A Bm Bm A


[Verse]
         G                  A         Bm
T'is the loathsome right of lions and lords
   G                      A
To visit their might upon lambs
   Bm          F#m     C#m          F#m
Oh butcher and beast, tyrant and cabal
  Em           A  Bm
I am a lion no longer

[Instrumental bridge]
Bm Bm A Bm Bm A


[Verse]
    G                    A           Bm
For empire and flag, for captain and king
  G                      A
I offered no quarter nor mercy
Bm             F#m       C#m               F#m
Spurred by the rage of a thousand vengeful gods
    Em                  A Bm
And blinded by men of ambition

[Verse]
G                A            Bm
Such industry is violence and war!
            G                     A
And how the ends are not all they claim
Bm           F#m        C#m            F#m
Righteous crusades bear bullion and control
    Em                     A Bm
And garnish the blood of a nation

[Verse]
     G                    A         Bm
So beware the promise of exotic frontiers
          G                    A
Where the battle of nowhere is waged
      Bm      F#m      C#m        F#m
Where patriot sons are put to the sword
    Em                        A Bm
And lost in the strains of an anthem
