  E                Am 
Upon a New Year's day 
  E                   Am      
A host of knights did pray 
     F              C                  G     Eb5+ 
That from the anvil one could draw the sword 
   Am                   E 
As each knight took his turn 
               Am             E  
They found the anvil, held it firm 
     F      Dm   Am     E        Am 
None worthy of a future King and Lord 

    E               Am 
Sir kay the bravest Knight 
  E                 Am 
Appeared to try his might 
    F               C                G    Eb5+ 
He dreamed of being King, as all the rest 
   Am              E 
To Arthur Sir Kay called to search 
    Am              E 
And bring for him a sword 
    F      Dm     Am   E         Am 
In earnest Arthur set about his quest

   E                Am 
A churchyard in the wood 
    E               Am 
The sword and anvil stood 
    F               C                 G    Eb5+ 
And Arthur drew his sword out of the stone 
    Am          E 
The anvil now defeated 
          Am               E 
His quest for the sword completed 
  F          Dm     Am        E      Am 
A sword that was to place him on the throne 
  F          Dm     Am        E      Am 
A sword that was to place him on the throne

E                  Am 
Sir Hector and Sir Kay 
         E                  Am 
Saw the sword and knelt to pray 
      F              C              G   Eb5+ 
Then gently took it from Arthhur's hand 
      Am               E 
They marvelled at his quest 
   Am               E 
Ploclaiming to the rest 
F      Dm     Am      E        Am 
Arthur is the King of all this land 
F      Dm     Am      E        Am
