More chords by Mark Knopfler

Genre: rock, blues, folk


This version of "Done With Bonaprte" is based on the performance at the 2007

AVO Session which was performed

in C. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPO02BvAu6g

Both Mark Knopfler and his acoustic guitarist played the song in G with the

capo on the 5th fret, which is how

I've done it here.
NOTES:
* The "G" chord played over the last syllable of the chorus ("-parte") is

actually the 1st chord of the

following instrumental.

** The last line of the outro slows down.

[Verse 1]
Em
We've paid in hell since Moscow burned
G
These Cossacks tear us piece by piece
D
Our dead are strewn a hundred leagues
Cmaj7
Though death would be a sweet release
Em
And our Grande Armée is dressed in rags
G
Frozen starving beggar band
D
Like rats we steal each other's scraps
C D C G
Fall to fighting hand to hand

[Chorus]
C
Save my soul from evil, Lord
G Em
Heal this soldier's heart
G Am
Trust in thee to keep me, Lord
C N.C G
I'm done with Bona-parte

[Instrumental]
