Jupiter - I Vow To Thee My Country Tabulatur von Gustav Holst (für Baryton)

[Verse 1]
 
C  F     G        C        Em  F              G Am
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
 
Em F        G         C            F          Dm C
entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love.
 
C   G         Am      G         C   G         C          F
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
 
     Am    Em  F   C         Dm          Am  G
that lays upon the altar the dearest and the best.
 
Em  F         G     C        Em  F              G   Am
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
 
Em  F         G       C           F       Dm C
the love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
 
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
C   F       G       C        Em   F             G Am
And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago,
 
Em   F       G         C              F             Dm   C
most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know.
 
C  G       Am        G       C  G       C       F
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King,
 
    Am       Em F C                   Dm         Am G
her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering.
 
Em  F       G        C        Em  F              G Am
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
 
Em      F        G       C               F             Dm  C
and her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.
