Voodoo Warrior
by Dave Robinson, 11 May 2023

verse 1
you Em came, you saw, you conquered, but you’re C nowhere near free
you may Em think you are invincible, so you C don’t bow down to me
what you D see is what you get .. what you C miss is your regret
G veni, vidi, vici, is all Am voodoo now to me …

verse 2
in a Em war of tit-for-tat, you C cannot press delete
be-Em-cause we didn’t learn from that must C history repeat?
it D matter not no more .. what the C battle cries were for
or the G tears that were shed for all the Am soldiers that are dead …

chorus 1
and the D flaws of carnal wisdom, from C steeple peaks resound
in G support of an evil system, where D people freaks abound
if Am music be the food of love, that C matters not a sound
when the G halls of indecision team with Am teeth that are shackled and bound
play Em on oh deathly folly, your Am intent is neither loud nor clear
play C on, oh voodoo warrior, for G you I have no fear

verse 3
Em egypt has its pyramids and C tombs of pharaohs past
they Em drowned of their own destiny, ‘twas C then the die was cast
in D athens the acropolis and C parthenon still stand
but a G shadow of their former glory and Am mythology so grand …

verse 4
you Em came, you saw, you conquered, when you C had a mighty fleet
left your Em mark on civilization, lying C naked in the street
my D roman friends and countrymen, will you C lend me now an ear?
the G charred remains of yesteryear are Am not the tales we want to hear …

chorus 2
to D negate a mighty scuffle, your C card deck needs a shuffle
your G voice is a mere annoyance, and you D have no crystal ball
and Am though we play the hand we’re dealt, it’s C clear your bias can still be felt
you’re not G practiced in clairvoyance and your Am back’s against the wall
play Em on oh deathly folly, your Am intent is neither loud nor clear
play C on, oh voodoo warrior, for G you I have no fear

verse 5 (repeat of verse 1)
you Em came, you saw, you conquered, but you’re C nowhere near free
you may Em think you are invincible, so you C don’t bow down to me
what you D see is what you get .. what you C miss is your regret
G veni, vidi, vici, is all Am voodoo now to me …

chorus 3
is there D nothing we can do to solve the C problems we created?
when we G act so irresponsibly, with D consequence ill-fated
play Am on, oh world-wide apathy, while we C worry for our futures
but our G wounds are merely skin-deep now we got Am self-dissolving sutures
play Em on oh deathly folly, your Am intent is neither loud nor clear
play C on, oh voodoo warrior, for G you I have no fear
