Isabel And The King Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

A5 D G C

Hammer-on the C chords.

In the chorus the run leading up to the C chord goes (E3 A0 A2).

As he A5laid Spanish rDoses in her haGir C G

And then A5covered the crDown of thorns she wGears C G

And the blCood from her lA5ips as she siDngs

Do it aCll for the glA5ory of thDee

And they carried her dCown, down, dGown

Down in the cCold, cold, grGound

By the river she uCsed to pGray

Forever now sChe will wGait for the kDingC to coGme C G

And the bA5oys who would cDrave her perfect skGin C G

She buA5rned herself, she thDought it would please hGim C G

And the irCon chain spA5iked around her waDist

And the poCison she usA5ed to hide her faDce

Refrain

And they carried her down, down, down

Down in the cold, cold, ground

By the river she used to pray

Forever now she will wait for the king to come

And she made a bed of broken glass and stone

Where she slept at night to prove her faith was strong

And when her broken body finally gave

There grew Spanish roses by her grave

And they carried her down, down, down

Down in the cold, cold, ground

By the river she used to pray

Forever now she will wait for the king to come
