Duchess Anne Chords

(ver. 1)
Fairport Convention
[Verse 1]
Em                     Bm
I swear allegiance, my friend,
        C               D
To your people and your land
Em                        Bm          Em
And to your daughter, the fair maiden Anne.
       Em              Bm
She is betrothed to my son
         C                 D
When the marriage vows are done
Em                     Bm                Em
Then our two countries shall be bound as one.
 
[Chorus]
Em      Am         C                Bm       Em
Duchess Anne, with courage and with faith in God
   D                 C
La Bretagne shall be saved.
Em     Am         C                Bm       Em
Do not fear, with passion and with faith in God
   D                 C
La Bretagne shall be saved.
 
[Verse 2]
Em                  Bm
A thousand soldiers come
       C               D
To the borders of your land
   Em                Bm               Em      C D
To free your country from the King of France
    Em            Bm
The devil be this King
          C               D
Who would bring us to our knees
    Em        Bm           Em
For gain, for power and in greed.
 
C Em
 
[Chorus]
Em      Am         C                Bm       Em
Duchess Anne, with courage and with faith in God
   D                 C
La Bretagne shall be saved.
Em     Am        C               Bm
Do not fear, the battle shall be won
        Em                  D                 C
We will fight them, we will crush them to the ground.

[Verse 3]
Em               Bm
Together we must stand
     C              D
To defy the King of France
    C              Bm              Em      C D
Yet again his army marches on your land
     Em            Bm
With treachery and lies
     C            D
He endeavours, he strives
          Em          Bm          Em    C D
To sow dissension,our allies to divide.
 
[Chorus]
Em      Am         C                Bm       Em
Duchess Anne, with courage and with faith in God
   D                 C
La Bretagne shall be saved.
Em     Am        C               Bm
Do not fear, the battle shall be won
        Em                  D                 C
We will fight them, we will crush them to the ground.

War cannot be stayed but with courage and with faith in God
   Bm                Em
La Bretagne will be saved.
