D
Day
But on the bloody morning
G D
After one tin soldier rides a-way
So the people of the valley
Sent a message up the hill
Asking for the buried treasure
Tons of gold for which they'd kill
Came an answer from the kingdom
With our brothers we will share
All the secrets of our mountain
All the riches buried there
Chorus
Now the valley cried with anger
Mount your horses Draw your sword
And they killed the mountain-people
So they won their just reward
Now they stood beside the treasure
On the mountain dark and red
Turned the stone and looked beneath it
Peace on Earth was all it said
Chorus
