Conquistador chords
Procol Harum 1967 (K Reid / G Brooker)

Capo III

Em

Em                A7              Conquistador your stallion stands 
D               D7In need of company 
Em                    A7And like some angel's haloed brow 
D               D7You reek of purity 

D7         E             Am I see your armour-plated breast 
    D                    EmHas long since lost it's sheen 
    E                  AmAnd in your death mask face 
             D                  EmThere are no signs which can be seen 

             Em        C7And though I hoped for something to find 
        Em     C7I could see no maze to unwind 

Em             A7Conquistador a vulture sits 
D                D7Upon your silver shield 
Em                A7And in your rusty scabbard now 
D                  D7The sand has taken seed 

D7              E               AmAnd though your jewel-encrusted blade 
    D                  EmHas not been plundered still 
    E               AmThe sea has washed across your face 
    D             EmAnd taken of it's fill 

             Em        C7And though I hoped for something to find 
        Em     C7I could see no maze to unwind 

Em                 A7Conquistador there is no time 
D                D7I must pay my respect 
Em                   A7And though I came to jeer at you 
D                  D7I leave now with regret 

D7         E               AmAnd as the gloom begins to fall 
  D                     EmI see there is no, only all 
               E                    AmAnd though you came with sword held high 
            D             EmYou did not conquer, only die 

             Em        C7And though I hoped for something to find 
        Em     C7I could see no maze to unwind 

             Em        C7And though I hoped for something to find 
        Em     C7I could see no maze to unwind 

Break

             Em        C7And though I hoped for something to find 
        Em     C7I could see no maze to unwind
