[D] [Am] War of the Roses, [Dm] Chaucer's Tales, The [E] brutal feudal [Am] system,
Holy [Em] Crusades, bubonic [Dm] plague, [E] Can't say that we've really [A] missed them.

That was [G] so Charlemagne.
[F] Welcome to the Renaissance, With poets, painters [Em] and bon vivants,
And [C] merry [G] menschuls, Who show the streets of London,
A strum in [Dm] their lutes, [G] Hip hop, the dance, and pointy leather boots.

We bring you moments [G] of culture and art.
