Intro: 

Em7 - C9 - D - C9


Verse:

         Em7                       C9 
soldier: they settled dust in your hair
D                      C9
to watch you shake and shout it out.
Em7              C9
with our armaments bared
D                        C9  
we shed our bags and travel alls.


Em7               C9 
from the lee of the wall
D                            C9
he comes in the chang and the chariot
Em7                    C9 
and all his eunuchs in thrall
D                           C9   
can scarce lift his line and lariat.


Chorus:

B
here com loose his hounds
A         
to blow me down. 
                         E      E A A E
chorus of waifs: blow me down.?@   
B                  
soldier: on this stretch of ground
A         
i'll lay me down.
                  Ab
chorus of waifs: lay me down.
            F#
soldier: to sleep.


Interlude:  Em7 - C9 ? D -  C9


Verse:

          Em7                  C9                
chaplain: and now stricken with pangs
     D                       C9 
that tear at our backs like thistle down
Em7                     C9
the mirror's soft silver tain
D                         C9  
reflects our last and birthing hour


Chorus:
         B
soldier: here come loose his hounds
A
to blow me down.
                         E      E A A E
chorus of waifs: blow me down.
         B
soldier: on this stretch of ground
A
i'll lay me down.
                    Ab
chorus of waifs: lay me down.
           F#
soldier: to sleep.
