Am           E7                 Am
Long ago, in days of old, there lived a knight who
F               C                        E7
wasn't quite as bold, as a knight should be.
   Am               E7                Am
He rode an old grey mare called Bess, searchin' for 
  F             C                     E7                A7
a damsel in distress...just to see if he, could set her free.
 
CHORUS:
Dm7     G7              C                   A7
See the knight in rusty armour ride..to her aid.
Dm7    G7               C      F            B7    E7
Trusty sword is hanging at his side..with a rusty blade.

Am           E7                    Am
Up the tower steps he sneaked, but as he moved,
    F            C                         E7
his rusty armour squeaked..such a mournful note..
     Am               E7              Am
that all the sentries at their posts, thought it must 
     F               C
have been the castle ghost.
                      E7            A
They jumped for their lives..in the moat.
 
CHORUS:#2.
Dm7    G7              C                    A7
So the knight in rusty armour won..his fair maid.
Dm7    G7               C      F             B7    E7
Had no need to draw his trusty sword..with a rusty blade.
 
#3.
Am            E7                 Am
As he bent to kiss his bride, he found that he was
F           C                   E7
rusted up inside..in his battle dress.
            A7
And I can't guess...
Dm7      G7                C       E7
how they still got married and had twins..
             A7
they came in tins.
 
OUTRO:
Dm7   G7             C    F     C     F
Every suit of armour ever made, has a kink,
C          F            G7      C
chain mail pants with a missing link.
 
 
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
