C#m
  On a cold winters morning
        A
In the time before the light
     B
In flames of death's eternal rain
                     C#m
We ride towards the fight

When the darkness is falling down
         A
And the times are tough alright
     B
The sound of evil laughter
        C#m
Falls around the world tonight

Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel
             A
Through the wastelands evermore
      B
The scattered souls will feel the hell
        C#m
Bodies wasted on the shores


         F#m
On the blackest plains in hell's domain
    C#m
We watch them as they go
    F#m                               B
In fire and pain, now once again we know


            E        B
So now we fly ever free,
        A
We're free before the thunderstorm
      C#m       B
on towards the wilderness
      A
Our quest carries on
 C#m            A        C#m            E
Far beyond the sundown, far beyond the moonlight
 F#m                                B
Deep inside our hearts and all our souls


         A                   C#m
So far away we wait for the day
         B                          G#
For the light source so wasted and gone
             A                      C#m
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
             B                           C#m 
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

C#m
   As the red day is dawning
      A
And the lightning cracks the sky
      B
They will raise their hands to the heavens above 
        C#m
With resentment in their eyes

Running back through the midmorning light
           A
There's a burning in my heart
       B
We're banished from a time in a fallen land
      C#m
To a life beyond the stars


         F#m
In your darkest dreams you still believe
     C#m
Our destiny this time
    F#m                          B
And endlessly we'll all be free tonight


            E           B       A
And on the wings of a dream so far beyond reality
C#m           B            A
All alone in desperation, now that time has come
 C#m                A           C#m           E
Lost inside you'll never find, lost within my own mind
 F#m                            B
Day after day this misery must go on


         A                   C#m
So far away we wait for the day
         B                          G#
For the light source so wasted and gone
             A                      C#m
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
             B                           C#m 
Through the fire and the flames we carry on

              C#m                          A
Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
              B                     E
We fought so hard now can we understand
                C#m                     A
I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
      B               G#
For freedom of every man


         A                   C#m
So far away we wait for the day
         B                          G#
For the light source so wasted and gone
             A                      C#m
We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
             B                           C#m 
Through the fire and the flames we carry on
