Bring 'em down Fairport Convention From 'Nine' (One more typical, darkish Trevor Lucas song) Intro: D, A, G, A, D, A G D Time stood dark and silent and the stars they gave no light A D I was wandering in an endless dream, haunted by the night A D I saw four ghostly riders, their horses in a line A D G Each in turn did point at me and said a mournful rhyme We are the sculptors of the land, the rulers of the sea We are the falcons of your sins, gardeners of the trees The air above you is burning and the sea below does drown And the legacy you'll leave your spawn will surely bring 'em down (chorus) G A D Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down G A D Bring 'em down. bring 'em down , Curse upon you men of war, with gun or pen in hand The power sought or won or bought, the castles made of sand You always have good reason to take more than you need Your hearts are full of hatred and your minds are full of greed Chorus Instrumental break, (extensive ad liberum on D, ending on several D, A, G, A; D, A, G, A, etc. until a few measures on G lead to D, introducing A and thus flowing into the last verse......Or whatever; just listen to the record) What is deeper than the ocean, colder than the grave And stronger than your armies all, and braver than the brave Those who know and all they know will sow on fertile ground Those who don't and never will are those who will go down Chorus
