Leather Brass And Bone Lyrics & Chords By Darby O'gill

LyricsView Chords

I am the warrior's fine steel blade, fired by the smithy o' Ramsgate
Through the dry dust drawn.
And I am his shinin' bright mail coat, sent on the wings of a longboat
Bloody as the dawn.
Last night lightning lit up a strange grey shadow there
But all was black as he peered through the storm.
Waiting, wondering how dear his soul old luck'd hold
Keening his sight, he unbuckled his sword.
I am the warrior's brave stallion, won from a rich Iber galleon
From my back he's torn.
And I am his loving young widow, cursing his name on my pillow
As his child is born.
Last night lightning lit up a strange grey shadow there
But all was black as he peered through the storm.
Waiting, wondering how dear his soul old luck'd hold
Keening his sight, he unbuckled his sword.
I am the earth that embraces him, toiling 'til there's not a trace of him:
Leather, brass and bone.
And I am the warrior's fond memory. Look close, 'cause that's all that's left of me:
Leather, brass and bone.
Last night lightning lit up a strange grey shadow there
But all was black as he peered through the storm.
Waiting, wondering how dear his soul old luck'd hold
Keening his sight, he unbuckled his sword.
