A Hero Named Epoli

Am

[Verse 1]
   Dm                    Am
At first I thought I was dreaming
     E                  Am
As I saw her out on the road
    Dm                      Am
Her banner was battered and streaming
    E                    E7
Her emblem tarnished and old
  Dm                  Am
I knew that she was a hero
    E                          Am
Her eyes blazing bright like a fire
    Dm                   Am
She rode on fiercely and fleeting
       E                     E7
With a spirit that left me inspired


[Chorus 1]
    F            C
She said keep on singing
    G               Am
And turned to ride away
  F                C                 E
A piece of me rode off with her that day
    F           C
Her name was Epoli she said
        G             Am
Not the city, not the star
F                 C              E       E7      Am
She's the one who set the flame alight inside my heart


[Verse 2]
    Dm                   Am
She wasn't my dream of a hero
E                 Am
Raw and dusty and worn
  Dm                      Am
A long road ahead without resting
   E                     E7
No time to reflect or to mourn
    Dm                        Am
Her sword and her spirit were fearless
    E                    Am
Her heart courageous and brave
   Dm                        Am
We said our good-byes on the seashore
       E                     E7
To the crash of the rumbling waves


[Chorus 2]
    F            C
She said keep on singing
    G               Am
And turned to ride away
  F                C                 E
A piece of me rode off with her that day
    F           C
Her name was Epoli she said
        G             Am
Not the city, not the star
F                 C              E       E7      Am
She's the one who set the flame alight inside my heart


[Verse 3]
       Dm                     Am
You'll always be here right beside me
   E                  Am
No matter how far you go
     Dm                 Am
Your quest may never be over
         E                   E7
But your legend continues to grow
     Dm                         Am
They said that the world has no heroes
    E                         Am
But clearly they've never met you
     Dm                    Am
I'll never forget what you told me
         E                       E7
Let this song tell all the world too


[Chorus 3]
    F            C
She said keep on singing
      G                 Am
And I turned to stride away
  F                   C                E
A piece of her strode off with me that day
    F           C
Her name was Epoli she said
        G             Am
Not the city, not the star
F                 C              E       E7      Am
She's the one who set the flame alight inside my heart
F                 C              E       E7      Am
She's the one who set the flame alight inside my heart
