Swan Upon Leda
Hozier
Key : D
Capo
[Intro]
---------------------
D

[Verse 1]
---------------------
  D            Em       Bm
A husband waits  outside
              A               D             G
A crying child pushes a child into the night
Bm            D             Em         Bm
  She was told he would come  this time
           A                 D             G
Without leaving so much as a feather behind
Bm                  A/C#      D   F#
  To enact, at last,   the perfect plan
                  Bm     A         G
One more sweet boy  to be butchered by men

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
        Em      D      A
But the gateway to the world
                      D       G
Was still outside the reach of him
Bm      Em      D       A
  Would never belong to angels
            D      G
Had never belonged to man
Bm    Em     D
  The swan upon Leda
F#      G        D
 Empire upon Jerusalem

[Verse 2]
---------------------
  D                Em       Bm
A grandmother smuggling meds
                  A                D      G
Past where the godchild soldier, Setanta, stood dead
Bm    D              Em        Bm
  Our graceful turner  of heads
                        A                D      G
Weaves through the checkpoints like a needle and thread
Bm                        A/C#    D    F#
  Someone's frightened boy   waves her on
               Bm          A    G
She offers a mother's smile and soon, she's gone

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
    Em      D      A
The gateway to the world
             D        G
The gun in a trembling hand
Bm      Em       D         A
  Where nature unmakes the boundary
              D         G
The pillar of myth still stands
Bm    Em     D
  The swan upon Leda
F#   G           D
 Occupier upon ancient land

[Bridge]
---------------------
Em | D  | A  | D | G  
Bm | Em | D  | A | D  
G  | Bm | Em | D | F# 
G  | D  

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
    Em      D      A
The gateway to the world
                      D       G
Was still outside the reach of him
Bm      Em      D    A
  Would never belong to angels
F#     G           D
 Had never belonged to man
