[Gm]
Conquistador, [C] you stand [F] in need of [A] company
[D] [Gm] And like some [C]
angel's hallowed crown, [F] you wreak of [A]
purity
[F] I [G] see your armor plated [Cm] breast, [F] as long since [Gm] lost its sheen
[G] And in your death [Cm]-mask face, there are [F] no signs you [Gm] can see
Though I hoped for [Eb] something to find, [Gm] I could see no [Eb] place to [D] unwind
[Gm]
Conquistador, [C] the fortress [F] sits upon your [A] silky [Gm] mane
And in your rusty [C]
scabbard [F] knife, the sand has [A] taken seed
[G] I know your jewel and crusted [Cm] blade [F] has not been [Gm] punished there
[G] She has [Cm] washed her rusty face, [F] taken all its [Gm] pain
Though I hoped for [Eb] something to find, [Gm] I could see no [Eb] place to unwind

[Dm] [Gm] Conquistador, [C] there is no time, [F] I must pay [A] more respects
[Gm] Though I came [C] to jeer at you, [F] I leave now with [A] regrets
As [G] the gloom begins [Cm] to fall, I see [F] there is no [Gm] honey on
[G] I know you came when [Cm] so held high, you did not [F] conquer, only [Gm] die
Though I hoped for [Eb] something to find, [Gm] I could see no [Eb] place to unwind
