SOLITARY HERO
As recorded by Sunny War
(From the 2024 Album MY BLACK COUNTRY: THE SONGS OF ALICE RANDALL)
Capo 3rd fret
[Intro]
B7 Em N.C.
[Verse 1]
Em
My name is Magdalene,
Am
I’m a sweet soft sister of sin
B7
Men pay silver dollars
Em
To touch my golden skin
[Verse 2]
Em
But there’s precious little comfort
Am
And never any joy
B7
For a boom town whore in
Em
A bar room full of dust caked men and boys
[Chorus]
E Am B7 E
Buffalo soldiers, Texas rangers, dandy gamblers, gandy dancers
Am Em
Sheriffs and judges, Mexican vaqueros
B7
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
Em
A solitary hero
[Verse 3]
N.C. Em
One weary sister said
Am
She’d rather take a knife to bed
B7 Em
I found her in the morning her pretty wrist was red
Em
But lovely lady Laudanum
Am
Helps to ease my pain
B7
And I dream a while about my sheltered child
Em
Who’ll never know her daddy’s name
[Chorus]
E Am B7 E
Buffalo soldiers, Texas rangers, dandy gamblers, gandy dancers
Am Em
Sheriffs and judges, Mexican vaqueros
B7
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
Em
A solitary hero
[Bridge]
Am Em
I’ve heard there’s a sanctuary for soiled doves to fly
Am B7
Trade their gaudy gowns for a novice’s robes of white
C G Am B7
And when my daughter’s finished school and found a decent home
Am Em B7
I'll run to those good shepherds never to return to, so
[Out-Chorus]
E Am B7 E
Buffalo soldiers, Texas rangers, dandy gamblers, gandy dancers
Am Em
Sheriffs and judges, Mexican vaqueros
B7
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
Em
A solitary hero
B7
I’ve held them all and I don’t recall
Em
A solitary hero
