Dm F G

[Verse 1]
Dm         C                            Gm
Now that I know that the right time has come
      Bb           C         Dm
My prediction will surely be true
    C                      Gm
The impending disaster, it looms
        Bb           C          Em
And the whole of the village is doomed

    D                   Bm
Why won't you listen to me?
      C       D       Em
Is it so hard to understand
     D                     Bm
That I am the real seventh son?
     C             D
Your life or death on me depends


[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am                    Bm
Suffering and pain, impending disaster
Am                Bm
Souls crying, the Devil's laughter
  Am                   Bm
I heard the cry of the seven whistlers
Am              Bm
Lucifer smiles, looks on and awaits


[Chorus 1]
     Eb   Ab   Db         Bbm
I'll take your life in my hands
     Eb    Db   Ab           Bbm
Your fate, your fortune's in my vision
Eb   Ab     Db             Bbm           Db
Heed what I say and you'll see what will be
                 Bbm
Please listen to me

[Verse 2]
Dm            C                   Gm
Now that they see the disaster is done
         Bb          C           Dm
Now they put all the blame on to me
     C                   Gm
They feel I brought on a curse
           Bb            C          Em
Don't they know that the torment it stays with me?
D                    Bm
Knowing that I walk alone
            C           D         Em
Through the eyes of the future, I see
     D                         Bm
They don't even know what fear is
           C            D          Am
Don't they know I'm the one who is cursed?


[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am                 Bm
Purgatory beckons, souls lost forever
Am                  Bm
Life after death or heaven hereafter
          Am                Bm
Heard the call of the seven whistlers again
    Am              Bm
Now Lucifer laughs, Hell awaits


[Chorus 2]
  Eb  Ab    Db          Bbm
I had their lives in my hands
      Eb    Db    Ab          Bbm      Eb
Their fate, their fortunes in my vision
   Ab    Db           Bbm        Db
No one believed in my true prophecy
                 Bbm Dm
And now it's too late
