Bm A Bm
With all the clarity of dream
A Bm
The sky so blue, the grass so green
Bm A Bm
The rank and file and the navy blue
Em A F#m Bm
The deep and strong, the straight and true
Bm A Bm
The blue line they got the given sign
A Bm
The belts and boots march forward in time
Bm A bm
The wood and leather the club and shield
Em A F#m Bm
Swept like a wave across the battlefield
Bm A Bm
Now with all the clarity of dream
A Bm
The blood so red, the grass so green
A Bm
The gleam of spur on chestnut flank
Em A F#m Bm
The cavalry did burst upon the ranks

Bm A Bm
Oh the iron will and iron hand
A Bm
In england's green and pleasant land
A Bm
No music for the shameful scene
Em A F#m Bm
That night they said it had even shocked the queen
Bm A Bm
Well alas we've seen it all before
Bm A Bm
Knights in armour, days of yore
Bm A Bm
The same old fears and the same old crimes
Em A F#m Bm
We haven't changed since ancient times
It sounds allright if you just make some fingerplay between the verses and just
simplifies it doing the verses
My suggestion is something like this:
(left hand holds Bm - only right hand fingerplay, keep playing this over
when you shift the chords, it will sound allright)
