[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A
It’s as if he knows
D A
he’s standing close to me
D A
his breath warm on my sleeve
E A E
his head hung low.
A
It’s as if he knows
D A
what the dawn will bring
D A
the end of everything
E A
for my old Banjo.
[Chorus]
D A
And all along the picket lines beneath the desert sky,
D
the Light Horsemen move amongst their mates
A E
to say one last goodbye.
D A D
And the horses stand so quietly, row on silent row,
E A D A
it’s as if they know.
[Interlude]
D E A
[Verse 2]
A
Time after time
D A
we rode through shot and shell,
D A
we rode in and out of hell
E A E
on their strong backs.
A
Time after time
D A
they brought us safely through,
D A
by their swift, sure hooves
E A
and their brave hearts.
[Chorus]
D A
Tomorrow we will form up ranks and march down to the quay,
D A E
and sail back to our loved ones in that dear land across the sea.
D
While our loyal and true companions
A D D
who asked so little and gave so much
E A D A
will lie dead in the dust.
