[Verse 1]
Bm Asus4 C G
A flat-footed traveler came in off the street
Bm Asus4 C G
And opened up his carpet bag of Persian at my feet
Bm Asus4 C G
And gathering up the amaranth trampled 'neath his heels
Bm Asus4 C Em
I've come for your brother he said pointin' to the fields
[Chorus]
Em D Em
Blazing now flames of blue
Em D G
Brace yourself I will take him from you
[Verse]
Bm Asus4 C G
His face was not angelical saintly in the least
Bm Asus4 C G
And I could tell from his accent he was from the East
Bm Asus4 C G
And I took him for a cripple he walked with a cane
Bm Asus4 C Em
I've come for your brother he said pointin' to the plains
[Chorus]

Blazing now flames of blue
Em D G
Brace yourself I will take him from you

Take him from you

Now the New World flags are flyin' ships are on alert
Bm Asus4 C G
The orders sent out overseas mustn't be overheard
Bm Asus4 C G
While information flickers in purple machines
Bm Asus4 C Em
Me I have my orders and lamps of kerosene
[Chorus]
Em D Em
Blazing now flames of blue

Brace yourself I will take him from you
