Am
She came to me one morning
One lonely sunday morning
G Em
Her long hair flowing
Am
In the midwinter wind
I know not how she found me
For in darkness I was walking
G Em
And destruction lay around me
Am
From a fight I could not win
Am C G Am C G Am
Ah ah ah ...
Am
She asked me name my foe then
I said the need within some men
G Em
To fight and kill their brothers
Am
Without thought of love or god
And I begged her give me horses
To trample down my enemies
G Em
So eager was my passion
Am
To devour this waste of life
Am C G Am C G Am
Ah ah ah ...
Am
But she wouldnt think of battle that
Reduces men to animals
G Em
So easy to begin
Am
And yet impossible to end
For shes the mother of our men
Who counselled me so wisely then
G Em
I feared to walk alone again
Am
And asked if she would stay
Am C G Am C G Am
Ah ah ah ...
Am
Oh lady lend your hand outright
And let me rest here at your side
G
Have faith and trust
Em
In peace she said
Am
And filled my heart with life
There is no strength in numbers
Have no such misconception
G
But when you need me
Em Am
Be assured I wont be far away
Am C G Am C G Am
Ah ah ah ...
Am
Thus having spoke she turned away
And though I found no words to say
G Em
I stood and watched until I saw
Am
Her black coat disappear
My labour is no easier
But now I know Im not alone
G Em
I find new heart each time
Am
I think upon that windy day
And if one day she comes to you
Drink deeply from her words so wise
G
Take courage from her
Em
As your prize
Am
And say hello from me
Am C G Am C G Am
Ah ah ah ...
