4/4 time
Key of A#
Played with capo at 3rd fret in G
Verse
G C D
I`ll sing you a song how first we began,
G C
Our toils and our troubles our plot and our plan.
C, G/B, G6, Am7 (one stroke each)
Am7 D
We left our fair country, our friends and our homes,
C, G/B, G6, Am7
Am7 (hammer on D strings).....D
Across to the deserts wild and the mountains to roll.
We travelled three weeks `til we came to the platt.
Set up our camp ahead of the pack,
In just a moment low we heard a faint yell,
Five hundred cavalry they were riding from hell.
Chorus
G C D Em7
We fight for favour,
G C D
we will fight for pride,
G C D Em7
And oh we will fight for favour,
C D (hammer on G string)
We will fight `til they die.
They made a bold dash came near to our train,
Bullets fell around like showers of rain,
With long rifles at hand we fed them hot lead
`Til many a brave warrior around us lay dead,
Chr.
We travel by day but guard in the night,
Across all those mountains so high in their might,
Now in a green valley we live beside a clear old stream,
Our journey now ended in the land of our dreams,
Chr.
