Gm A# When we set out on this journey There were no doubts in our minds We set our eyes to the distance We would find what we would find We took courage from our numbers What we sought we did not fear A# F Sometimes we'd glimpse a shadow falling C F C The shadow would disappear Gm A# But our thoughts kept returning Gm A# To something the boy said as we turned to go A# F He said you'll never see our faces again C F C You'll be food for a carrion crow Chorus: A# D#maj7 A# Every step we took today D#maj7 A# Our thoughts would always stray D#maj7 C# From the wind on the moor so wild D# To the words of the captain's child Gm A#6 A#maj7 Something the boy said Gm A#6 A#maj7 Something the boy said Gm A#6 A#maj7 Something the boy said Gm A#6 A#maj7 Something the boy said In the circles we made with our fires We talked of the pale afternoon The clouds were like dark riders Flying on the face of the moon We spoke our fears to the captain And asked what his son could know For we would never have marched so far To be food for a crow Chorus When I awoke this morning The sun's eye was red as blood The stench of burning corpses Faces in the mud Am I dead or am I living? I'm too afraid to care, I'm too afraid to know I'm too afraid to look behind me At the feast of the crow We spoke our fears to the captain And asked what his son could know For we would never have marched so far To be food for a crow Something the boy said | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  A#  A#m  C  C#  D#  D#m  D#maj7  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
