Broken Flag

A E D A E  A D E

[Verse 1]

A       E       D      A
Nodding tho the lamp's lit low,
E       A       D    E
Nod for passers underground.
A      E         D   A
To and fro she's darning,
    E       A       F#m     E
the land is weeping red and pale.

[Chorus]

E            D    F#m  E
Weeping yarn from Algiers.
             D    F#m  E
Weeping yarn from Algiers.

[Verse 2]

A       E       D        A
Weaving tho the eyes are pale,
E         A         D    E
What will rend will also mend.
A       E        D   A
Sifting cloth is binding,
    E         A           F#m   E
the dream she weaves will never end.

[Chorus]

E                  D      F#m  E
For we're marching toward Algiers.

For we're marching for Algiers.

[Verse 3]

A       E   D      A
Lullaby tho baby's gone.
E    A    D      E
Lullaby a broken song.
A       E      D       A
Oh, the cradle was our call.
E       A         F#m     E
When it rocked we carried on.

[Chorus]

E                 D      F#m  E
And we marched on toward Algiers.
                   D   F#m  E
For we're marching for Algiers

E                    D      F#m  E
We're still marching toward Algiers.
                   D   F#m  E
Marching, marching for Algiers.

[Verse 4]

A      E      D      A
Not to hail a barren sky.
E       A        D       E
Sifting cloth is weeping red.
    A        E       D      A
the mourning veil is waving high
  E        A         D           
A field of stars and tears we've 
E
shed.

[Verse 4]

A      E     D      A
In the sky a broken flag,
E        A        D           E
Children wave and raise their arms.
A        E        D          A 
We'll be gone but they'll go on
     E
 and on
    A      E      A
And on and on and on.
