One Tin Soldier chords by Maureen Mcgovern


Maureen Mcgovern Chords


ONE TIN SOLDIER (Maureen McGovern)

Listen children to a story that was written long ago
About a kingdom on a mountain and the valley folk below
On the mountain was the treasure buried deep beneath the stone
And the valley people swore theyâd have it for their very own

CHORUS:

Go ahead and hate your neighbour go ahead and cheat a friend
Do it but in the name of Heaven, justify it in the end
There wonât be any trumpets blowing, come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after...
ONE TIN SOLDIER RIDES AWAY

So the people of the valley sent a message up the hill
Asking for the buried treasure tons of gold for which theyâd kill
Came an answer from the kingdom...
ãWith our brothers we will share, all the secrets of our mountain,
all the riches buried there.ä
Now the valley cried with anger...äMount your horses,
draw your sword.ä
And they killed the mountain people so they won their just reward.
Now, they stood beside the treasure on the mountain,
dark and red, turned the stone and looked beneath it...
ãPEACE ON EARTHä was all it said.

Go ahead and hate your neighbour, go ahead and cheat a friend
You can do it in the name of Heaven , justify it in the end
There wonât be any trumpets blowing, come the judgement day
On the bloody morning after
ONE TIN SOLDIER RIDES AWAY
(repeat)

 Some close friends of mine really think that I should be playing guitar
because I have an unusual, but amazing memory when it comes to lyrics.  Some
say, I don't sound too bad in the singing department, either.  I don't agree,
of course, because I'm quite shy with the attention that's associated with it.
