Jack Bruce - Escape to the royal wood on ice

C^Gome dancing o^Dn my stage ^{E F} My bullets have a ^Dbsilver ^Cmlining ^GWind me up and ^Dset me free ^{E F} My uniform's ^Cbright ^Eb Trumpets blaring,^Ab princes sharing, ^Eb Swords are flashing, ^Gkingdoms ^Cfall^Fing^G

^F When you're dancing in the ^Eballroom moonlight, ^Dbfeet quicksilver lace^Em My Lad^Dy ^F When you lose yourself in^Eside the city ju^Dbngle then you're pr^Emetty sure of finding a ^Dhiding place

^G Come stepping through^D my head ^{E F} My cloak will give us ^Dbboth pro^Cmtection ^G Set me up u^Dpon your wall ^{E F} I'll dance all night ^Clong ^Eb Cannons roaring,^Ab banners soaring, ^Eb Lances flashing, the ^Gblood is ^Cpou^Fring ^G

^F When you tremble at the ^Edragons roaring at the ^Dbforest's door I'll hol^Emd you close My ^DLady ^F When your house shakes at the je^Etplanes' howling cau^Dbsing mousequakes i^Emn your cornflakes, then I'll be b^Dy your side ^F When you're knocking on the ^Edoors of death and ro^Dbcking wolves in cradles sc^Emared of losing your ^DSecret Rose

^G Accept my h^Dandkerchief ^{E F} Tears shining 'cause the ^Dbshow is ^Cmover ^G Take my arm and ^Dwalk with me ^{E F} Together we're ^Cfree ^Eb Brakes are screeching^Ab, statues preaching ^Eb Hoardings flashing, em^Gpires ^Ccras^Fhing ^G
