Conquistador:Procul Harem. Album - Procul Harem - 1967. #1. Gm C7 Conquistador, your stallion stands F F (Eb bass) in need of company. Gm C7 And like some angels haloed brow, F F (Eb bass) you reek of purity. F G G9 G G7 Cm I see your ar..mour-plated breast, F F7 F F7 Gm has long since lost its sheen. G G7 G G7 Cm And in your death mask face, Cm F F7 F F7 there are no signs which can be seen. Gm Eb And though I hoped for, something to find, Gm Eb Gm I can see no, maze to unwind... #2. Gm C7 Conquistador a vulture sits, F F (Eb bass) upon your silver shield. Gm C7 And in your rusty scabbard now, F F (Eb bass) the sand has taken seed. F G G9 G G7 Cm And though your jewel-encrusted blade, F F7 F F7 Gm has not been plundered, still. G G7 G G7 Cm The sea has washed across your face, Cm F F7 F Gm and taken of its fill. Gm Eb And though I hoped for, something to find. Gm Eb Gm I could see no, maze to unwind... #3. (Chords same as #1 and #2.) Conquistador there is no time, I must pay my respect. And though I came to jeer at you, I leave now with regret. And as the gloom, begins to fall, I see there is no, only all.. And though you came with sword held high, You did not conquer, only die. And though I hoped for, something to find, I could see no, maze to unwind. A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
