[Intro]
Am C G F
[Verse 1]
AmWe shall let our E7songs drown
The rattle of the Amtrain
And the roaring of the E7crowd
AmWe shall wet our tE7hroat with sticky dark wAmine
And toast this blood E7wedding so fine
AmTo new horE7izons! to a new daAmwn!
To a new and reckless gE7enerosity!
AmFor this our E7land of the free
We shall wAmin, die or E7betray and turn
[Chorus]
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GIn vain to write our name
FIn blood and in flowers of flame
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GAll blind and gone astray
FOur envy green as may
[Verse 2]
AmAll smothered in wild E7flowers
AmWe break the windows E7to breathe
AmThat golden dawn is E7ours
AmFor tonight hesitE7ation is on leave
AmTo wear god E7down
To flatten him Amout
To pray to no E7other
AmTo parley with dE7eath
To bury the crAmown
To silence all lE7overs
We shall turn
[Chorus]
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GIn vain to write our name
FIn blood and in flowers of flame
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GAll blind and gone astray
FOur envy green as may
[interlude]
N.C.
Schwerter zu rost herzen zu staub!
N.C.
Dennoch die schwerter halten
N.C.
Dennoch die herzen spalten
[Chorus]
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GIn vain to write our name
FIn blood and in flowers of flame
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GAll blind and gone astray
FOur envy green as may
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GIn vain to write our name
FIn blood and in flowers of flame
AmSwords to rust - Chearts to dust
GAll blind and gone astray
FOur envy green as may
