CAPO: 5th Fret
[Intro]
Am G Dm Am G Dm Am G Dm Am
[Verse 1]
So fallen, so lost, the light withdrawn
Which Gonce he wore
The Dmglory from his grey hair gone
ForAmevermore
[Verse 2]
Revile him not, the Tempter hath
A Gsnare for all
And Dmpitying tears, not scorn or wrath
BeAmfit his fall
[Verse 3]
Oh, dumb be passion's stormy rage
When Ghe who might
Have Dmlighted up and led his age
Falls Amback in night
[Verse 4]
Scorn, would the angels laugh to mark
A Gbright soul driven
Fiend Dmgoaded down the endless dark
From Amhope and heaven
[Verse 5]
Let not the land once proud of him
InGsult him now
Nor Dmbrand with deeper shame his dim
DisAmhonoured brow
[Verse 6]
But let its humbled sons instead
From Gsea to lake
A Dmlong lament, as for the dead
In Amsadness make
[Verse 7]
Of all we loved and honoured
Naught save Gpower remains
A Dmfallen angel's pride of thought
Still Amstrong in chains
[Verse 8]
All else is gone from those great eyes
The Gsoul has fled
When Dmfaith is lost, when honour dies
The Amman is dead
[Verse 9]
Then pay the reverence of old days
To Ghis dead fame
Walk Dmbackward with averted gaze
And Amhide the shame
