My Sweet Rapier Michael McDermott Bourbon Blue Album or CD for younger folks Same chords thru whole song: Am Am7 C Am Am7 Em/A Sweet seventeen my virgin queen, I saw her on a charcoal mare Am Am7 C Am Em Am I did decide to make her my bride, while I swam in her crystal stare A peasant love ancient cliffs above, the wind wrestled in my head I spent the night while my love held tight, on the night when we were wed I traveled around with a village clown, for some noblemen and royalty When I returned I saw my house was burned, and my love hanging from a tree [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/michael-mcdermott/267581.html ] I swear on my mother soul tonight the soul of my true love fair That I wont sleep until your blood rests, on my sweet rapier As sure as my name I knew who to blame, the very ones that I will find Hes a swordsman skilled, the very one who killed, the truest love of mine I saw the way he looked at her, on the days of the village fair He wore a fichu around his neck and black ribbon in his hair An I swear on my fathers soul tonight and on the soul of my true love fair That I wont sleep until your blood rests, on my sweet rapier I may be over matched I know, but the battle is already won I will find ye sir and cut thee down, before the rising sum I swear on my mothers soul tonight the soul of my true love fair That I won’t sleep until your blood rests, on my sweet rapier Thats how I hear it.
