Intro:     Two Bars of C (Cross picking)      

        / C5                        /A5
Too / thin the line that / charged the Heights, and
F5                          / C5
Scrambled in the / clay.
        / C5                       / A5
Too / thin the Eastern / Township Scot
         / F5                               / G5
Who / showed them all the / way, and
         / C5                         / A5
Per - / haps had you not / fallen,
                  / F5                             / A5
You might / be what Brock be - / came,
             / C              / F                                    / C        / /
But not / one in ten / thousand knows your / name. / /

      / C5                                / A5
To / say the name, Mac - / donnell,
               / F5                      / C5
It would / bring no bugle / call,
             / C5                                   / A5
But the / Redcoats stayed be - / side you,
                   / F5                          / G5
When they / saw the General / fall.
                    / C5                             / A5
Twas Mac- / donnell raised the / banner then, and
F5                              / A5
Set the Heights a - / flame,
             / C               / F                                  / C         / /
But not / one in ten / thousand knows your  /name. / /

Chorus:

        / G                              /
You / brought the field all / standing
                 / F5                             / C5
With your / courage and your / luck,
             / C5                                   / A5
But un- / known to most, you're / lying there
        / F5                           / G5
Be - / side old General / Brock.
                       / C5                 / A5
So you know / what it is to / scale the Heights, and
F5                         / A5
Fall just short of / fame, and
                / C               / F                                 / C        / /
Have not / one in ten / thousand know your / name. / /

At / Queenston now, the / General,
            / F5                          / C5
On his / tower stands a - / lone, and
              / C5                         / A5
There's / lichen on "Mac - / donnell,"
                     / F5                             / G5
Carved up - / on that weathered / stone.
       / C5                    / A5
In a / corner of the / monument,
     / F5                        / A5
To / glory you could / claim ,
             / C5               / F5                                  / C5
But not / one in ten / thousand knows your / name.

Be - / side old General / Brock.
