                          "Knight in Rusty Armour"

                          (M. Leander - C. Mills)

  

  Intro:

  

  	(strings [2X; guitar enters 2nd time]):

  

  	Am       C       E7

  	/ / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

  

  Verse 1:

  

  	 Am          E7

  	Long ago in days of old

  	        Am                F               C

  	There lived a knight who wasn't quite as bold

  	                   E7     /E /F /F# /G#

  	As a knight should be

  

  	    Am               E

  	He rode an old grey mare called Bess

  	 Am              F             C

  	Searchin' for a damsel in distress

  	               E7

  	Just to see if he

  	               A7

  	Could set her free

  

  Chorus 1:

  

  	Dm7       G7             C

  	See the knight in rusty armour ride

  	       A7

  	To her aid

  	 Dm7    G7              C       F

  	Trusty sword is hanging at his side

  	        B7    E7

  	With a rusty blade

  

  Verse 2:

  

  	Up the tower steps he sneaked

  	But as he moved his rusty armour squeaked

  	Such a mournful note

  

  	And all the sentries at their post

  	Thought it must have been the castle ghost

  	They jumped for their lives

  	In the moat

  

  Chorus 2:

  

  	So the knight in rusty armour won

  	His fair maid

  	Had no need to draw his trusty sword

  	With a rusty blade

  

  Verse 3 [partial]:

  

  	Am             E7

  	As he bent to kiss his bride

  	    Am                F           C

  	He found that he was rusted up inside

  	               E7

  	In his battle dress

  	           A7

  	And I can guess

  

  Coda:

  

  	Dm7       G7                C

  	How they still got married and had twins

  	              A7

  	They came in tins

  	Dm7    G7             C    F

  	Every suit of armour ever made

  	 C     F

  	Has a kink

  	  C          F           G7      C

  	Chain mail pants with a missing link

  

  	(bass drum/high hat fill; end cold on C)
