LEGEND OF THE THIEF (NOTE: Cap strings at second fret!) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/tyla-j-pallas/348218.html ] GDCE DCG CG G D C E Far away in a distant land lived the King of thieves D C G C G he possessed many treasures, but was always evaded by love G D C E D Not for the want of trying, though never to succeed, it C G C G seemed he could steal anything except for this one need. G D C E Then one day back in his lair he did discover and he did curse D C G C G another with light fingers had robbed him of his purse, G D C E D so back into the city and long into the night he hunted C G C G the soul who should be so sly, with his cash to alight. E D C G Oh the King of the thieves was he E D Easy come and easy go C G DCE DCGCG The King of the Thieves. G D C E He rattled his mind for recollections of that previous day, D C G C G G then that vision of the fair maiden brushed past him in that oh so peculiar way, well D C E D of course, it was so obvious and plain to see, for if he C G C G was king, then she must be E D E G Oh the Queen of the thieves was she E D Easy come and easy go C G The Queen of the thieves. G D C E Sure enough the following day their paths were to cross again D C well he followed her through the courtyard G C G G D C E amused by her gain, gold and silver coins of the realm. D C She seemed to have magic fingers as G C G into many pockets all did fell. E D C G Oh the Queen of the thieves was she E D Easy come and easy go C G CG The Queen of the Thieves. G D C E Soon both grew hungry and so into the tavern divine D C G G G G to drink of the local ale and sing badly out of time, into D C E D each others eyes, and into each others arms, the spell C G C G G of love cast over them, embraced by their charms. They D C amassed between them a fortune and by night they E D C G threw it all away, they had no cares or worries for love C G would save the day. E D C G Oh the King and Queen of thieves were they, E D Easy come and easy go C G CG The King and Queen of Thieves. G D C E Then one year and one day precisely on the witching hour D C G a child came unto them, but one arm shrivelled as a C G G D dead flower. The Queen did cry and the King did weep C E D and they searched the world for a cure, swearing C G never to steal again of this one thing they could C G be sure. E D C G Oh the King and Queen of the thieves were they E D Easy come and easy go C G CG The King and Queen of Thieves. G D C E Finally word came of a medicine man way up in the hills D C G C G of a cure they could be sure, if only they kept their word. G D C Around the smouldering couldron they sat as he E D E chanted, then he poured onto the child's stricken arm a G G G D potion from his magic lantern. Sure enough the arm C E D did heal and all the birds did sing, then the palm C G of the child's hand opened wide to reveal the C G midwife's wedding ring. E D C G Oh the Prince of thieves was he E D Easy come and easy go C G The Legend of the Thief. E D C G Oh the King, Queen, Prince of Thieves E D Easy come and easy go C G The Legend of the Thief GGCG GGCG GGCG  |
