[Em] We buried our sons [C] and turned and fled, [Em]
no growing old,

[Em] But we came back [C] because one man said,
[Em] Now on the beaches [C] the blood runs red.
[E]
[Em] I faced them down,
[C] the only one,
[Em] I stood alone.
[C] And war would come, [Em] but they were wrong.
[C] A peace that's everyone, [Em]
not for the last time, [C] we'll stand alone.
I'll watch the sun move [Em] away as I [D] embrace the night,
[C] And my black dog has its day.
For six long years you [Em] shall not laugh,
From the heavens and the days, we [C] will march.
[E] [C] In the sand, [G] in the [B] serenade of glory,
[E]
[C] Naked by the [G] throne of kings.

[E] hour.
[Em]
The blazing fire, [C] like a dying star,
[Em] One last burning giant, [C] two stupid tall moves,
[Am]
I've changed [Em] into swords.
You [G] sons of Albion, [D] away to [C] find the sacred land.
[E] Here [C] I stand, [G] in the [B] serenade of glory,
[E] [C] Naked by the throne [G] of kings.
