One Of Us

C               G                 Am              F
Before I got to fighting (or when fighting got to me)
  C              Am              F              G
I looked to find examples on the field of chivalry
          C                G                Am              F
And I saw mighty arms much stronger than my arms could ever be
     C                   G                 C
So I thought perhaps the field was not for me
            C                      G                 Am           F
But still I stayed and watched the fighting 'til one figure stood apart
   C            Am              F                  G
In armour newly fashioned and a helm more pot than art
         C                    G            Am               F
But each blow was thrown with honour and a lightness of the heart
     C                    F    G        C       *
So I took that step which soon became a start
               F               C           F              C
'Cause she was not the biggest fighter nor one to raise a fuss
      F              C                  G
But I remember being proud that she was one of us
             C           G               Am                  F
And we might never stand together in the shield-wall side by side
       C             G                  C
But because of her I lift my sword with pride

        C            G               Am             F
She was ladylike and lively, not the type you would expect
       C                 Am         F            G
With a braver heart than many and a slot-shot to respect
  C                G                Am                  F
I guess she'd once decided this was where she'd like to be
      C                    G              C
And I thought if she could do it, why not me
               F               C           F              C
'Cause she was not the biggest fighter nor one to raise a fuss
      F              C                  G
But I remember being proud that she was one of us
             C           G               Am                  F
And we might never stand together in the shield-wall side by side
       C             G                  C
But because of her I lift my sword with pride

       C           G                Am              F
So now as I gather armour, bits and pieces here and there
  C           Am                F                 G
I think about examples: how you act, and what you dare
           C                G               Am             F
'Cause you never know who's watching or how far that story goes
    C                  G             C
And where'er that Lady is I hope she knows

               F               C           F              C
'Cause she was not the biggest fighter nor one to raise a fuss
      F              C                  G
But I remember being proud that she was one of us
             C           G               Am                  F
And we might never stand together in the shield-wall side by side
       C             G                  C
But because of her I lift my sword with pride
       C           G               Am                  F
We may never stand together in the shield-wall side by side
       C             G                  C
But because of her I lift my sword with pride!
