[A] [D] [Bm] [D]
[A] [Bm] [D]
[A] [Bm] She's the maid of the [D] river so beautifully [A] plain
As fresh as the [Bm] country that gave her her name
As crisp as the [D] snow and as swift as the rain
She [A] shone like the [Bm] sun before all of our games
She shone like a [D] jewel but her prize was not gold
She [A] cried more than [Bm] most when her story was [D] told
But her people were evil after burning cold
[A] Her heart went to [Bm] market where her body was sold
I said, hey, [D] hey, why don't you take me away
Cos [A] I can't see the point in [Bm] the dawn of a day
When so many [D] killers come take you away
[A] And leave little left [Bm] except hatred
She's [D]

There's all kinds of hatred [D] flows out of man's hands
[A] The hatred that [Bm] strangles the throat of a man
But the worst of [D] all hatred is that which is planned
[A] Against [Bm] what we have in this godless land
I said, hey, hey, why [D] don't you take me away
[A] Cos I can't see the point [Bm] in the dawn of a day
When so many [D] killers come take you away
