Biography:
Australian new wave band Icehouse was formed in 1977, initially called 'Flowers', by Iva Davies (born Ivor Arthur Davies, on 22 May 1955, in Wauchope, New South Wales, Australia). Inspired by art rock and avant-garde pop, Davies was the main creative force behind the band, being a classically trained musician. Band member Keith Welsh joined him on bass. For a number of years they also obtained the services of Bob Kretschmer, until he was replaced by young guitarist Paul Gildea.

Trojan Blues by Icehouse
Verse 1:
Am Fmaj7/A
The soldiers standing on the shore
G Am
take up their golden shields
Fmaj7/A
You watch them from your room
G Am
high on the city wails
Fmaj7/A
In the distance on the shifting sea
G
a thousand coloured sails
Am
Is this the moment you made
Fmaj7/A
is this the way that you planned
G
you know it won`t be long now
Chorus:
G Dadd9
The finest treasures of kings
E7sus4
all of those precious things
Bb
they never tempted you
Dadd9
So as you stood in the ruins
E7sus4
how could you bear to look on
Bb C G
as they burned for you?
Dadd9
The broken pieces of clay
E7sus4
and the palest eyes, painted in
Bb
Trojan blue
Verse 2:
Am Fmaj7/A
You remember how it used to be
G
when you were just a girl
Am Fmaj7/A
Nothing really mattered then
G
you can remember so well
Am Fmaj7/A
How you used to hold your head so high
G
those days will never return ..(to chorus)
Verse 3:
Am Fmaj7/A
Dust is drifting in the evening air
G
across the field below
Am Fmaj7/A
The silver mirror you hold will never tell...
G
you turn your face away ..(to chorus)
