soldier: they settled dust in your hair

with our armaments bared

we shed our bags and travel alls.

from the lee of the wall

D                            Cadd9
he comes in the chang and the chariot

Em7                    Cadd9 
and all his eunuchs in thrall

D                           Cadd9   
can scarce lift his line and lariat.

chorus of waifs: blow me down.

chaplain: and now stricken with pangs

     D                       Cadd9 
that tear at our backs like thistle down

Em7                     Cadd9
the mirror's soft silver tain

D                         Cadd9  
reflects our last and birthing hour
