She
Am
came to me one morning, one
Am
lonely Sunday morning
Her
G
long hair flowing in the
Am
midwinter
wind
I
Am
know not how she found me for in
Am
darkness I was walking
And
G
destruction lay around me from a
Am
fight I could not win

Verse 2
She
Am
asked me name my foe then, I
Am
said the need within some men
To
G
fight and kill their brothers without
Am
thought of love or God
And I
Am
begged her give me horses to
Am
trample down my enemies
So
G
eager was my passion to
Am
devour this waste of life

Verse 3
But she
Am
would not think of battle that
Am
reduces men to animals
So
G
easy to begin and yet
Am
impossible to end
For
Am
she’s the mother of our men who
Am
counselled me so wisely then
I
G
feared to walk alone again and
Am
asked if she would stay

Ah… ahah..

Verse 4
Oh,
Am
lady lend your hand outright and
Am
let me rest here at your side
Have
G
faith and trust in peace she said and
Am
filled my heart with life
There
Am
is no strength in numbers, have
Am
no such misconception
But
G
when you need me be assured I
Am
won’t be far away
Chorus
Am
Ah… ahah..
G

Ah…
G

Verse 5
Thus
Am
having spoke she turned away and
Am
though I found no words to say
I
G
stood and watched until I saw her
Am
black coat disappear
My
Am
labour is no easier but
Am
now I know I’m not alone
I
G
find new heart each time I think
Am
upon that windy day
And
Am
if one day she comes to you drink
Am
deeply from her words so wise
Take
G
courage from her as your prize and
Am
say hello from me
