Am(2)
5 -6 -6 -6 7 -7 -6 -6
She came to me one morn-ing
5 -6 -6 -6 7 -7 -6 -6
One lone-ly Sun-day morn-ing
G(1)
-6 -7 6 -7 -8 -8
Her long hair flow-ing
Am(3)
7 -7 -6 -6 -7 -6
In the mid-win-ter wind
5 -6 -6 -6 7 -7 -6 -6
I know not how she found me
5 5 -6 -6 -6 7 -7 -6 -6
For in dark-ness I was walk- ing
G(1)
-6 -6 6 6 6 -7 -8 -8
And de-struc-tion lay a-round me
Am(2)
7 -7 -6 -6 -6 -7 -6
From a fight I could not win
G(1/2) Am(1)
-6 -7 7 -7 -6 -7 7 -7 -6
Ahh””””,
G(1/2) Am(4)
8 -8 7 -8 8 -8 7
Ahh””””.
(then start again with):
Am(2), etc.
She asked me name my foe then
I said the need within some men
To fight and kill their brothers
Without thought of love or God
And I begged her give me horses
To trample down my enemies
So eager was my passion
To devour this waste of life
Ahh, Ahh
But she wouldn’t think of battle that
Reduces men to animals
So easy to begin
And yet impossible to end
For she, the mother of all men
Who counselled me so wisely then
I feared to walk alone again
And asked if she would stay
Ahh, Ahh
‘Oh lady, lend your hand ,’ I cried
‘Oh, let me rest here at your side.’
‘Have faith and trust in me,’ she said
And filled my heart with life
‘There’s no strength in numbers
Have no such misconception
But when you need me
Be assured I won’t be far away’
Ahh, Ahh
Thus having spoke she turned away
And though I found no words to say
I stood and watched until I saw
Her black cloak disappear
My labour is no easier
But now I know I’m not alone
I find new heart
Each time I think upon that windy day
And if one day she comes to you
Drink deeply from her words so wise
Take courage from her as your prize
And say hello from me
Ahh, Ahh
