The Amsoldier came Amknocking upoFsus9n the queen's Fsus9door Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 G He said, "I am not fighting for you anymore" And the Amqueen knew she'd Amseen his face Fsus9 someplace bFsus9efore Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 And slowly she let him inside
He said, &Amquot;I've watched Amyour palaceFsus9 up here on thFsus9e hill Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 G And I've wondered who's the woman for whom we all kill But I am Amleaving toAmmorrow, and you can dFsus9o what you wilFsus9l Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 Only first I am asking you why"
DoF9wn the lF9ong narrC9ow hall he was lC9ed D7sus4Into her D7sus4room with her D7tapestries Dmred And Amshe never Amonce took the crF9own from her hF9ead Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 She asked him there to sit down
He said, &quoAmt;I see Amyou now and youF9 are so veF9ry young But I've sCadd9een more battles lGost than Cadd9I have battles wGon And I've Amgot this intuAmition says it's aF9ll for your fF9un Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 And now will you tell me why?"
Well the yAmoung queen, she fAmixed him with an arrF9ogant eye F9 She said, "Cadd9You won't undeGrstand, and Cadd9you may as well Gnot try" But her fAmace was a chiAmld's, and he tF9hought she would cF9ry Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 But she closed herself up like a fan
And she F9said, "I hF9ave swalloweC9d a secret burniC9ng thread It D7sus4cuts me insD7sus4ide and oD7ften I've bDmled" And he lAmaid his hand tAmhen on the tF9op of her hF9ead Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 And he bowed her down to the ground

"TelAml me how hungry Amare you, F9how weak you mF9ust feel Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 G As you are living here alone and you are never revealed But I Amwon't march agAmain on yoF9ur battlefiF9eld" Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 And he took her to the window to see
And the sAmun it was gAmold, though the F9sky it was gF9rey Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 G And she wanted more than she ever could say But she Amknew how it Amfrightened her and F9she turned awF9ay Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 And would not look at his face again
He said, &F9quot;I wanF9t to livC9e as an hoC9nest man To D7sus4get all I desD7sus4erve and to gD7ive all I cDman Am An F9 F9 And to love a young woman whom I don't understand Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 Your highness, your ways are very strange"
But the crAmown, it had falAmlen, and she thF9ought she would brF9eak Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 G And she stood there ashamed of the way her heart ached And she tAmook him to the dAmoorstep and she asF9ked him to wF9ait Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 She would only be a moment inside
AmOut in the Amdistance her Fsus2order was Fsus2heard Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 G And the soldier was killed still waiting for her word And while the Amqueen went on Amstrangling in the Fsus9solitude she preFsus9ferred Csus9 Gsus4/B Csus9 Csus9 The battle continued on
