[Intro]
C D Em D (2x)
[Verse 1]
C D Em D
Across the flatlands we came out of nowhere special
C, D
Like a peasant revolution-
Em D
makeshift weapons in our hands
C D
We crashed the gates so hard
Em D
we'd never heard that kind of sound before
C D
And braced ourselves for victory
Em Bm
and the spoils of the land
C
Defences melt away before our
D
frozen blank surprise
C
From the palace now we stare
B
into a million waiting eyes
[Chorus]
Em D
I've got my trophies on the wall
Em D
The heads I've hunted down the hall
Em D
And I guard my winnings well
Em D
Carry them with me when I fall
Em D
Now the daylight hours pass
Em D
Like the people I have lost
Em D
In the triumph of the hour
Em D C D Em D
In the bloody cause - lust, lust for power
[Bridge]
C D Em D
[Verse 2]
C D Em D
Like a vision she dances through the shafts of light
C D Em D
Everything I've ever dreamed about focu'sed true and 'bright
C D Em D
And fortune opens up the ground blackens out the sky
C D
I kissed her once, I kissed her twice
Em D
But I couldn't remember why
C
When I was young they taught me well
D
to always play to win
C
But they never said what happens
B
when you've won the bloody game
[Chorus]
Em D
I've got my trophies on the wall
Em D
The heads I've hunted down the hall
Em D
And I guard my winnings well
Em D
Carry them with me when I fall
Em D
Now the daylight hours pass
Em D
Like the people I have lost
Em D
In the triumph of the hour
Em D C D Em D
In the bloody cause - lust, lust for power
[Bridge]
C D Em D
[Special]
Dm
And all desires is satisfied
Em
But still the hunt goes on
Am
It's funny how this feeling stays
B
With all the reasons gone
[Verse 3]
C D
We've seen them fat and bleated
Em D
those who cure could hold a flame
C D
I've run for home and words gone by
Em D
but nothing seems the same
C D
I can watch the world in secrecy
Em D
From one side of this glass
C D
From the other my reflection
Em D
and I don't know which is worse
C
The streets are lined with glittering stores
D
and a million fated calves
C
I can catch myself sometimes these days
B
and all I do to laugh, laugh
[Chorus]
Em D
I've got my trophies on the wall
Em D
The heads I've hunted down the hall
Em D
And I guard my winnings well
Em D
Carry them with me when I fall
Em D
Now the daylight hours pass
Em D
Like the people I have lost
Em D
In the triumph of the hour
Em D C D Em D
In the bloody cause - lust, lust for power
[Outro]
C D Em D

Funny, listened to the tape a couple of times,
and never got it right, but just now I just wrote
it down out of my head, grin.
