[Verse 1]
E5 G5 A5
Wandering aimlessly in a cold dark mist I foll--ow
E5
Walking in a dark world that’s been
A#5 A5
Kissed with sad--ness
E5 G5 F#5 E5
Without sunlight things are born
A#5 A5
To the dead of nightmares
E5 G5 F#5 E5 C5 D5
Soulless demons laugh--ing in a sea of mad--ness
[Verse 2]
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
Listen clo--sely to the raven’s call
E5 G5 F#5 C5 A5
Praying hard for our world not to end
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
Try as might to make sense of it all
B5 C5 D5
Will it be for the penance of men
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
Follow north for the call of the wild
E5 G5 F#5 C5 A5
Look all out for a small wayward child
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
Lay in fear as the dark raven crows
E5 G5 F#5 C5 A5
Look for gui-dance from the one who knows
[Pre-Chorus]
B5 C5 D5 C5 B5
He lived on this earth for a time and a half
C5 D5 C5 B5
Playing a tune to the old man’s laugh
C5 D5 C5 B5
The fear that’s inside the men of the oath
C5 D5
In the script of the book that he wrote
[Chorus]
Em G Cmaj7
Ask them the questions
Em G Cmaj7
Tell them no lies
Em G Cmaj7
A cry for freedom
B5 C5 D5
Praying that they wouldn’t die
Em G Cmaj7
Mind over matter
Em G Cmaj7
Cry over sins
Em G Cmaj7
Their lives are over now
B5 C5 D5
Ended before they begin
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
As the ra---ven again passes by
E5 G5 F#5 C5 A5
I can hear all the wake fathers cry
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
That the first born of all men will die
B5 C5 D5
That their lives will be taken from them
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
Face the dan---ger a battle of wills
E5 G5 F#5 C5 A5
Strength and cou---rage a cure for all ills
E5 G5 F#5 C5 D5
We beli---eve in that thou shall not kill
E5 G5 F#5 C5 A5
But o---thers are ready to spill
[Pre-Chorus]
B5 C5 D5 C5 B5
The hearts of all men since beginning of time
C5
Living with temptation
D5 C5 B5
Wanting and crime
C5 D5 C5 B5
A walk in the shadow of the valley of death
C5 D5
Knowing I’ll take my last breath
[Chorus]

Em G Cmaj7
Tell them no lies
Em G Cmaj7
