Strawbs – Where Silent Shadows Fall chords

[Verse]
                    CThe valiant soldier smiles
                    Dm7The lady lowers her eyes
                    CThe battle has been won
                    Dm7With no sense of surprise
                     CShe questions not at all
                      Dm7The valiant soldier’s prize
                      CThe valiant soldier’s prize

[Chorus]
    F      Em        Dm7     GFor all of those who fail to hear
    Dm7    C      F     GThe silent hero’s call
   Dm     C         F        GWe honour those who face themselves

[Verse 2]
                    CThe valiant soldier hears
                     Dm7From far and distant lands
                  CThe piper’s sad lament
                      Dm7He feels his mother’s hands
                  CWhen all are in retreat
                    Dm7The valiant soldier stands
                    CThe valiant soldier stands

[Chorus]
    F      Em        Dm7     GFor all of those who fail to hear

[Verse]
                    CThe valiant soldier calls
                   Dm7The public purse denies
                    CHe sadly shakes his head
             Dm7Weary of the lies
                    CWho never knows his child
                    Dm7The valiant soldier dies
                    CThe valiant soldier dies
