[C]
[Cm] Too thin [C] the line that charged the heights [Dm] and [C] scrambled in the play
Too thin the Eastern Township's got who showed them [G] all the [F] way
And [Em] perhaps had you not fallen [C] you might be what Brock [Dm] became
But not [C]
one in ten [G] thousand [C] knows your name
To say the name MacDonald it would bring no bugle call
But the Redcoats stayed beside you when they [G] saw the general fall
T'was [Em] MacDonald raised the banner [E]
then and [F] set the [C] heights [Dm] aflame
But [C] not one in ten [G] thousand [C] knows your name
You [G] brought the field all standing with your [F] courage and [C] your luck
But [E] unknown to most [Em] you're lying there [D] beside old General [G] Brock
So you know [C] what it is to scale the heights and [F] fall [Em] just short [Dm] of fame
And have not [C] one in ten [G] thousand [C] know your name

At Kingston now the general on his tower stands [F] alone
And [C] there's lichen on MacDonald carved [G] upon that weathered stone
[Em] In a corner of [E] the monument to [F] glory [C] you could [Dm] claim
But not [C] one in ten thousand knows your name
You [G] brought the field all standing with your [F] courage and your [C] luck
But [Em] unknown to most you're lying there [Dm] beside old General [G] Brock
So you know [C] what it is to scale the heights and [F] fall just [Em] short [Dm] of fame
And have [C] not one in ten [G] thousand know [C] your name
Oh you [G] brought the field all standing with your [F] courage [C] and your luck
But [Em] unknown to most you're lying there [Dm] beside old General [G] Brock
