Subject: CRD: One Tin Soldier

            ONE TIN SOLDIER                    COVEN

F               C          Dm

Listen children to a story that was written long ago

Bb              F             Gm7

'Bout a kingdom on a mountain and the valley folk below

F               C              Dm

On the mountain was a treasure buried deep beneath a stone

Bb             F                   Gm7                     F   Bb    F

And the valley people swore they'd have it for their very own

CORUS:

                       Am         Bb                        F

Go ahead and hate your neighbour, go ahead and cheat a friend

                     Am      Bb                  F

Do it in the name of heaven, justify it in the end

                            Am      Bb                   F

There won't be any trumpets blowin, come the judgement day

                      Bb        

On the bloody morning after......

        Bb                   F        Bb

One tin soldier rides away.

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 wil 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 the 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
