conquistador chords
procol harum 1967 ( k reid / G brooker )

capo iii

Em

Em A7
conquistador your stallion stands
D D7
in need of company
Em A7
and like some angel’s haloed brow
D D7
you reek of purity

D7 E Am
i see your armour – plated breast
D Em
has long since lost it’s sheen
E Am
and in your death mask face
D Em
there are no signs which can be seen

Em C7
and though i hoped for something to find
Em C7
i could see no maze to unwind

Em A7
conquistador a vulture sits
D D7
upon your silver shield
Em A7
and in your rusty scabbard now
D D7
the sand has taken seed

D7 E Am
and though your jewel – encrusted blade
D Em
has not been plundered still
E Am
the sea has washed across your face
D Em
and taken of it’s fill

Em C7
and though i hoped for something to find
Em C7
i could see no maze to unwind

Em A7
conquistador there is no time
D D7
i must pay my respect
Em A7
and though i came to jeer at you
D D7
i leave now with regret

D7 E Am
and as the gloom begins to fall
D Em
i see there is no , only all
E Am
and though you came with sword held high
D Em
you did not conquer , only die

Em C7
and though i hoped for something to find
Em C7
i could see no maze to unwind

Em C7
and though i hoped for something to find
Em C7
i could see no maze to unwind

break

Em C7
and though i hoped for something to find
Em C7
i could see no maze to unwind
