      C          G          C 
The battle was over at Custer's last strand, 
     F                                    C 
and tabs were sounding for all the brave man, 
      F                                C 
while one lone survivor, wounded and weak, 
   G                         F                   C 
Comanche, the brave horse lay at the general's feet.
 
  
(Chorus) 
   F                                       C 
Comanche, you fought hard, Comanche, you tried, 
      G                      F                  C 
you were a good soldier, so hold your head up high. 
     F                                C 
For even the greatest sometimes must fall, 
  G             G7          F             C 
Comanche, the brave horse, you gave your all. 
  
 
   C             G            C 
Though you are silent, your deeds did speak loud, 
          F                                       C 
if your buddies could see you, I know they'd be proud. 
     F                                    C 
The symbol of bravery at the Little Big Horn, 
 G         G7              F                  C 
poor old Comanche, you're battle-scarred and torn. 
(repeat chorus X2)
