* guitar plays higher line on 2nd repeat of each verse
Conquistador your stallion stands in need of company
Gm C7
And like some angel's haloed brow
F F7/Eb
You reek of purity
G Cm
I see your armor plated breast
F Gm
Has long since lost its sheen
G Cm
And in your death mask face
F Gm
There are no signs which can be seen
Chorus:
Gm Eb7
And though I hoped for something to find
Gm Eb7 Gm
I could see no place to unwind
Verse 2:
Conquistador a vulture sits, upon your silver sheath
And in your rusty scabbard now, the sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade
Has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
[repeat chorus]
Verse 3:
Conquistador there is no time, I must pay my respect
And though I came to jeer at you
I leave now with regret
And as the gloom begins to fall
I see there is no, only all
Though you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die
[repeat chorus, 2X]
organ solo:
Gm Eb7 [4X]

Conquistador your stallion stands in need of company
And like some angel's haloed brow
You reek of purity
I see your armour-plated breast has long since lost its sheen
And in your death mask face
There are no signs which can be seen
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no maze to unwind
Conquistador a vulture sits upon your silver shield
And in your rusty scabbard now
The sand has taken seed
And though your jewel-encrusted blade has not been plundered still
The sea has washed across your face
And taken of its fill
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no maze to unwind
Conquistador there is no time
I must pay my respect
And though I came to jeer at you
I leave now with regret
And as the gloom begins to fall
I see there is no aureole
And though you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die
And though I hoped for something to find
I could see no maze to unwind
