Song For Karna (c) Andy Gupta 2009,2021
bpm=64/128
Intro: Electric piano solo1, chords: Em//Dm//Am//G//Dm//Am/G
Riff 1: Am/G/Dm x4
Am
You never knew
Your real mother’s love
G Em G
You were found & raised by others as their own;
Am
Fathered by the Sun God
Blessed with his radiance
G Dm Am
Your rightful place was gained too late
Dm
A warrior true and brave
Am
A worthy rival (and) a loyal friend
B
But a chain of circumstances
E
Brought curses in its stead
Riff 2: Am/G/Dm x4
Fated against your own
Who walked the Royal path
(You were) befriended by their mortal enemy
You chose your side
Your rivalry intensified
Either you or Arjuna must die
(You became) a true king amongst men
Known for your generosity
You gave away the rings and armour
(The) divine protection against your foes…
Am
You
G Am
Were the noblest of them all
G Am
A tragic hero standing tall
G Dm G
You were the greatest of them all
Am
You
G Am
Were the finest of them all
G C
Though you finally had to fall
G Dm G Am
You were the greatest of them all
Instrumental break: Electric piano solo2, chords: Em//Dm//Am//G//Dm//Am/G
Solo 1: Guitar solo 1st (over same chords as verse)
And of the war that came
There are legendary tales
Of betrayal, valor and of chivalry
(Your) fortunes ebbed and flowed in war
(But) you stayed true to your ideals
While waiting for that moment to arrive
And on the seventeenth day
You met your Arch rival on the field
You proved yourself more than equal
Before the curse struck you mortally…
You
Were the noblest of them all
The one on the outside
You were the greatest of them all
You
Were the bravest of them all
Though you finally had to fall
You were the greatest of them all
