laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                     D
The price of a long due reckoning, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                   D     
Old King Cole has paid the toll of the

crimes levied upon his soul

The rebel blades have achieved their goal,

laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                         D        
His mouth hangs open, his eyes are wild,
   Bm                        A
with a gaping wound is his chest defiled
Em                            D     
While round his split throne the dead lie piled,
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done

laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                        D    
Believed in peace, yet marched to war, 
Bm                           A
shot through the heart, dead upon the floor
Em                            D    
Covered in her own and her sister’s gore,
Bm                        A 
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                       D   
With an army to lead and a war to win, 
       Bm                   A
put the bullet to dozens of her own kin
Em                      D     
Atoning for some vast and secret sin, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done

laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                            D  
While outside the door many more lay dead, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                    D  
Her body lies in her wife’s caress, 
   Bm                        A
her face is free of her life’s distress
Em                         D 
Wearing the rags of her wedding dress, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                          D  
Released from her cell, like the wrath of hell, 
    Bm                        A
the three little pigs to her anger fell
Em                           D  
But King Cole sounded her funeral knell, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done


# [Verse 4]
Em                    D     
Twenty-three warriors gone to rest, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                         D    
Fought with the worst and died with the best, 
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                   D             
Cinders saw her betrothed at last, 
     Bm                        A
her beauty untouched by the decades past
Em                         D  
Then King Cole fired, and it went too fast,
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done
Em                           D                       Bm                        A
With the girl to whom through the years she’d sing,
 Bm                        A
dead at the hand of the thrice-damned king
Em                            D   
She pierced his chest with her blood-red ring,
Bm                        A
laid in blood when the battle has done

# [Outro]
Em                              D  
Their bodies are still and their blood is cold, 
Bm                        A
the book is closed and the story told
Em
No ‘Happy Ever After’ for a tale so old,
Bm                                  A
Laid in blood when the battle has done

# [Spoken]
The End.
