* guitar plays higher line on 2nd repeat of each verse
Conquistador your stallion stands in need of company
SOLm DO7
And like some angel's haloed brow
FA FA7/MIb
You reek of purity
SOL DOm
I see your armor plated breast
FA SOLm
Has long since lost its sheen
SOL DOm
And in your death mask face
FA SOLm
There are no signs which can be seen
Chorus
SOLm MIb7
And though I hoped for something to find
SOLm MIb7 SOLm
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
[repeat chorus, 2X]
organ solo:
SOLm MIb7 4X
