Poem by Percy Bysshe Shelley, my music.

lyrics

Ozymandias Poem Percy Bysshe Shelley, Music Jan Hauenstein

(Em)(Em)(Em/D)(Em/D)(Cj7)(Cj7)(D) (hold)
(G) I met a (D)traveller (Em) from an antique (C)land
Who (D)said: Two vast and (Fj7)trunkless legs of (C)stone
(B7)Stand in the desert... near them, on the (Em)sand,
Half (Am)sunk, a shattered (B7)visage lies, whose (Em)frown,
And wrinkled (C)lip, and (D)sneer of cold com(Em)mand,
Tell that its (C)sculptor (B7) well those passions (Em)read
Which yet sur(Fj7)vive, stamped on these (Bbj7/F)lifeless things,
The (Am)hand that mocked them (B7)and the heart that (Em)fed.
(Em)(Em/D)(Em/D)(Cj7)(Cj7)(B7)
(Em)(Em)(D6)(D6)(Cj7)(Cj7)(D) (hold)

(G) And on the (D)pedestal (Em) these words ap(C)(hold)pear:
'My (D)name is Ozy(Fj7)mandias, king of (C)kings:
(B7)Look on my works, ye (hold)Mighty, (Em)and despair!'
(Fj7)Nothing beside remains. (Bbj7/F)Round the decay
Of that co(Am)lossal wreck, (B7) boundless and (Em)bare
The (Am)lone and level (B7)sands stretch far a(Em)way,
(Em)(Em/D)(Em/D)(Cj7)(Cj7)(B7)
The (Am)lone and level (B7)sands stretch far a(Em)way.
(Em)(Em/D)(Em/D)(Cj7)(Cj7)(B7) (Em9) (Em) (hold)
Gone. (Em)

Ozymandias written by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822),

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year...
