Capo 1st fret 
  |   F   |   F   |   F   |   B C/E   |   B Dm   |   F C F F   |   F   |   F   |   
 
F                           B              C/E 
To the days of Avalon Where magic rules as king 
    B                Dm           F      C           F 
The moon beneath the castle walls As the nightingale sings... 
    F                              B            C/E 
The golden bird He gave to me What happiness he brings  
B                Dm             F      C           F 
Like a star on a Christmas tree As the nightingale sings  
    C          F                C               F 
And so we sat, hand in hand and watched the fireflies 
    C             F               B              C 
And never spoke a single word But lived to do or die 
   B              C      |   C   |   
We lived to do or die  
     F                           B              C/E 
Back to the days of Avalon Where magic ruled as king 
    B                Dm           F      C           F 
The moon beneath the castle walls As the nightingale sings... 
 

  |   F   |   B C/E   |   B Dm   |   F C F F   |   
 
    C          F                C               F 
And so we sat, hand in hand and watched the fireflies 
    C             F               B              C 
And never spoke a single word But lived to do or die 
   B              C      |   C   |   
We lived to do or die  
   

   Dm                         Am  
We read of tales of treason A soldiers legacy 
Dm                        Am 
Blood beneath the crimson sky  
B                F/A        Gm               F 
Fighting without reason But the crime of loyalty 
  B             Gm   F  C          |   C   |    
A tattered flag left to fly... 
 

     F                           B              C/E 
Back to the days of Avalon Where magic rules as king 
    B                Dm           F      C           F 
The moon beneath the castle walls As the nightingale sings... 
    F                                 B                C/E  
The branches bent Like an archers bow As he spread his wings 
    B                Dm          F      C           F 
And flew beneath the gentle snow As the nightingale sings... 
     F                           B              C/E 
Back to the days of Avalon Where magic rules as king 
    B                Dm           F      C           Dm 
The moon beneath the castle walls As the nightingale sings... 
F      C           F           B C F 
As the nightingale sings...
