Impi

A   Asus4 A      G
Impi!        wo 'nans' impi iyeza,
           Bm           A  Asus4  A

All along the rive-e-e-er   Chelmsford's army lay asleep,
G       A                       G        A
Come to crush the children of Mageba-a-a-a,
G                 A                 D    Dsus4  D
Come to exact the realm's price for peace,
Bm                         G
And in the morning as they saddled up to ride,
      Bm                               G    G A
Their eyes shone with the fire and the steel,
Bm                           G
The general told them of the task that lay ahead,
             Bm            A      G    D
To bring the people of the sky to heel.

G             A           G          A
Mud and sweat on polished leathe-e-e-er,
G         A              D   Dsus4  D
Warm rain seeping to the bone,
G                     A            G          A
They rode through the season's wet weathe-e-e-er,
G               A              D   Dsus4  D
Straining for a glimpse of the foe,
Bm                 G
Hopeless battalion destined to die,
Bm                       G    G A
Broken by the benders of kings,
Bm                       G
Vainglorious general and Victorian pride,
      Bm                 A                 G    D
Would cost him and eight hundred men their lives.

     G           A           G          A
They came to the side of the mounta-a-a-ain,
G           A              D   Dsus4  D
Scouts rode out to spy the land,
G                   A            G         A
Even as the realm's soldiers lay resti-i-i-ing,
  G             A            D   Dsus4  D
Mageba's forces were soon at hand,
Bm                     G
And by the evening the vultures were wheeling,
 Bm                              G    G A
Above the ruins where the fallen lay,
Bm                 G
An ancient song as old as the ashes,
       Bm          A                 G    D
Echoed as Mageba's warriors marched away.
