[Verse 1]
    Am                          Am
She came to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning
    G                        Am
Her long hair flowing in the midwinter wind
  Am                               Am
I know not how she found me for in darkness I was walking
       G                             Am
And destruction lay around me from a fight I could not win

[Chorus]
| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G  |       Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah

[Verse 2]
    Am                           Am
She asked me name my foe then, I said the need within some men
   G                                     Am
To fight and kill their brothers without thought of love or God
      Am                           Am
And I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies
   G                         Am
So eager was my passion to devour this waste of life

[Chorus]
| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G  |       Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah

[Verse 3]
        Am                               Am
But she would not think of battle that reduces men to animals
   G                       Am
So easy to begin and yet impossible to end
    Am                              Am
For she's the mother of our men who counselled me so wisely then
  G                                Am
I feared to walk alone again and asked if she would stay

[Chorus]
| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G   |      Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah

[Verse 4]
    Am                               Am
Oh, lady lend your hand outright and let me rest here at your side
     G                                     Am
Have faith and trust in peace she said and filled my heart with life
      Am                              Am
There is no strength in numbers, have no such misconception
    G                             Am
But when you need me be assured I won't be far away

[Chorus]
| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G  |       Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah

[Verse 5]
     Am                               Am
Thus having spoke she turned away and though I found no words to say
   G                                Am
I stood and watched until I saw her black coat disappear
   Am                      Am
My labour is no easier but now I know I'm not alone
  G                                 Am
I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day
    Am                                Am
And if one day she comes to you drink deeply from her words so wise
     G                                  Am
Take courage from her as your prize and say hello from me

[Chorus]
| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G  |       Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah

| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G  |       Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah

| Am             | G           Am |
  Ah...  ahah.. ahahah...  ahahah
| Am          G  |       Am |
  Ah...  ahahah...  ahahah
