Icehouse - Trojan blues

^AmThe soldiers standing ^Fmaj7/Aon the shore take up their ^Ggolden shields ^Am You watch them ^Fmaj7/Afrom your room high on the ^Gcity wails ^Am In the distance on the ^Fmaj7/Ashifting sea a thousand ^Gcoloured sails Is this the ^Ammoment you made is this the ^Fmaj7/Away that you planned you know it ^Gwon`t be long now

^GThe finest ^Dadd9treasures of kings all of those ^E7sus4precious things they never ^Bbtempted you So as you ^Dadd9stood in the ruins how could you ^E7sus4bear to look on as they ^Bbburned for you? ^{C G} The broken ^Dadd9pieces of clay and the ^E7sus4palest eyes, painted in ^BbTrojan blue

^AmYou remember how it ^Fmaj7/Aused to be when you were ^Gjust a girl ^AmNothing really ^Fmaj7/Amattered then you can ^Gremember so well ^AmHow you used to hold your ^Fmaj7/Ahead so high those days will ^Gnever return ..(to chorus)

^AmDust is drifting in the ^Fmaj7/Aevening air across the ^Gfield below The silver ^Ammirror you hold will ^Fmaj7/Anever tell... you turn your ^Gface away ..(to chorus)
