[Intro]

| Em  Am  | Em  D   | G   D   | Em     |

| Em  Am  | Em  D   | G   D   | Em     | Em     |

 

[Verse 1]

    Em           Am          Em          D

The Dornishman's wife was as fair as the sun,

        G           D           Em

and her kisses were warmer than spring.

        Em           Am        Em             D

But the Dornishman's blade was made of black steel,

        G          D              Em

and its kiss was a terrible thing.

 

[Verse 2]

    Em           Am         Em           D

The Dornishman's wife would sing as she bathed,

     G              D          Em

in a voice that was sweet as a peach,

        Em           Am          Em              D

But the Dornishman's blade had a song of its own,

      G              D         Em

and a bite sharp and cold as a leech.

 

[Verse 3]

      Em         Am              Em          D

As he lay on the ground with the darkness around,

        G            D            Em

and the taste of his blood on his tongue,

    Em             Am         Em              D

His brothers knelt by him and prayed him a prayer,

       G             D              Em

and he smiled and he laughed and he sung,

 

[Verse 4]

Em            Am           Em            D

"Brothers, oh brothers, my days here are done,

    G            D        Em

the Dornishman's taken my life,

    Em           Am          Em              D

But what does it matter, for all men must die,

         G          D            G

and I've tasted the Dornishman's wife!"
