Album - Procul Harem - 1967.
#1.
Gm C7
Conquistador, your stallion stands
F F (Eb bass)
in need of company.
Gm C7
And like some angels haloed brow,
F F (Eb bass)
you reek of purity.
F G G9 G G7 Cm
I see your ar..mour-plated breast,
F F7 F F7 Gm
has long since lost its sheen.
G G7 G G7 Cm
And in your death mask face,
Cm F F7 F F7
there are no signs which can be seen.
Gm Eb
And though I hoped for, something to find,
Gm Eb Gm
I can see no, maze to unwind...
#2.
Gm C7
Conquistador a vulture sits,
F F (Eb bass)
upon your silver shield.
Gm C7
And in your rusty scabbard now,
F F (Eb bass)
the sand has taken seed.
F G G9 G G7 Cm
And though your jewel-encrusted blade,
F F7 F F7 Gm
has not been plundered, still.
G G7 G G7 Cm
The sea has washed across your face,
Cm F F7 F Gm
and taken of its fill.
Gm Eb
And though I hoped for, something to find.
Gm Eb Gm
I could see no, maze to unwind...
#3. (Chords same as #1 and #2.)
Conquistador there is no time,
I must pay my respect.
And though I came to jeer at you,
I leave now with regret.
And as the gloom, begins to fall,
I see there is no, only all..
And though you came with sword held high,
You did not conquer, only die.
And though I hoped for, something to find,
I could see no, maze to unwind.
A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
