Conquistador your stallion stands in need of company
Gm C7 And like some angel's haloed brow F F7/Eb You reek of purity G Cm I see your armor plated breast F Gm Has long since lost its sheen G Cm And in your death mask face F Gm There are no signs which can be seen
Chorus:
Gm Eb7 And though I hoped for something to find Gm Eb7 Gm I could see no place to unwind
Verse 2:
Conquistador a vulture sits, upon your silver sheath And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed And though your jewel-encrusted blade Has not been plundered still The sea has washed across your face And taken of its fill
[repeat chorus]
Verse 3:
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 Though you came with sword held high You did not conquer, only die
