F#5 G5
[Verse 1]
F#5 G5
In ancient times once rode across the land
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
A man unknown on a horse of untold grand,
F#5 G5 E5 F#5
Adorned his cape by thirty runes of gold
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
Of whom the tales since ages unknown told
F#5 G5
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
F#5 G5 E5 F#5
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
[Verse 2]
F#5 G5
The man arrived at the shore of sea
F#5 E5
And gazed onto the nightly sky,
F#5 G5
His ears could hear and his eyes could see
F#5 E5 G5
Two ravens dark as night passing by
[Verse 3]
F#5 G5
In a distance far the thunder sounds
F#5 E5
And lightnings reached the frozen grounds,
F#5 G5
His breath ran fast, his heart pounded strong
F#5 E5 G5
As the day now came, awaited oh so long
[Verse 4]
F#5 G5
Tears will fall and blood will soon be shed
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
When the dawn heralds the twilight of the day
F#5 G5 E5 F#5
Then into battle they will ride with their swords in hand
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
For a heathenish foray
F#5 G5

[Verse 5]
F#5 G5
Countless miles he rode through ice and knee-deep snow
F#5 E5
Over mountains 'till the landscape changed its face
F#5 G5
So he at last arrived where winds blew strong and chill
F#5 E5 G5
Like a welcome to all those who trod this place
[Verse 6]
F#5 G5
He in cape was wrapped, and with his hammer 'round his neck
F#5 E5
He forced his way though he didn't saw the path,
F#5 G5
But he did not rest, 'till he had crossed this land of chill
F#5 E5 G5
And the storm had calmed, when he stood alone on hill
[Verse 7]
F#5 G5
His eyes could see the forest shining bright
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
And its trees reflected solens golden light,
F#5 G5 E5 F#5
The sound of horns then reached his ears
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
To welcome him and take away his fears
F#5 G5
F#5 D5 E5 F#5

[Verse 8]
F#5 G5
From all their lands the kings, they came
F#5 E5
With their retinue of countless men,
F#5 G5
And the maiden in full armour sat on their horses,
F#5 E5 G5
Winged, until the right began
[Verse 9]
F#5 G5
So he rested a while an recovered from his ride,
F#5 E5
The horizon gleamed by the mighty northers light,
F#5 G5
And the elder ones sang tales about the past,
F#5 E5 G5
Of their ancestors pride, that will forever last
[Verse 10]
F#5 G5
As the darkness fell and gone was solens light
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
The silence ruled amongst the men of heathenpride,
F#5 G5 E5 F#5
Who now gathered in a mighty battle-line
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
And awaited their gods to give the final sign
F#5 G5
F#5 E5
F#5 G5
F#5 E5 G5
[Verse 11]
F#5 G5
Tears will fall and blood will soon be shed
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
When the dawn heralds the twilight of the day
F#5 G5 E5 F#5
Then into battle they will ride with their swords in hand
F#5 D5 E5 F#5
For a heathenish foray
