The King's Command

             Ami                   C  G 
1.I've been called to fight for Royalty
        F                 C   G 
  to be at the King's commands
        Ami           C    G 
  be a martyr for my country
             F 
  spill my blood all on the land
             C                G 
  and if I should die in battle
          F              C  G 
  it's a noble thing to do  
         Ami            C  G 
  but if I should be a her o
     F             Ami 
  I will return to you.
2.For the glens have been my kingdom
  my only royalty
  and I've raised my sword against the Lord
  to protect my family
  but to join the English army
  and to fight for them abroad
  not for England or her empire
  could I ever raise my sword.
3.I hear the drumbeat sounding
  it will lead me far away
  and although my soul is leaving
  my heart will surely stay
  and I'll fight for them tomorrow
  though it be against my word
  or my children they will perish
  on an English soldier's sword.
