| The King's Command |

                  Ami                   C  G
    1. I've been called to fight for Royalty
             F                 C   G
       to be at the King's commands
             Ami           C    G
       be a martyr for my country
                  F
       spill my blood all on the land
                  C                G
       and if I should die in battle
               F              C G
       it's a noble thing to do
              Ami            C G
       but if I should be a hero
          F             Ami
       I will return to you.

    2. For the glens have been my kingdom
       my only royalty
       and I've raised my sword against the Lord
       to protect my family
       but to join the English army
       and to fight for them abroad
       not for England or her empire
       could I ever raise my sword.

    3. I hear the drumbeat sounding
       it will lead me far away
       and although my soul is leaving
       my heart will surely stay
       and I'll fight for them tomorrow
       though it be against my word
       or my children they will perish
       on an English soldier's sword.
