G5             F5               G5
The faithful crowd is gathered here
               F5          G5
Soon they'll appear
             F5                  G5
The high and mighty show up the king
      F5           G5
Is in doubts
                 F5             G5
"Apart from this beggar here
                    F5               G5
There's no one like you my dear
           F5
Tasting my lips
           G5  A#5  F5
No one but you and him"

          G5   F5               G5
Round the fire everyone should sing
    G5         C5        F5
And praise the gracious queen
          G5   F5               G5
Round the fire everyone should dance
       G5         F5        C5
And we praise the handsome knight

  D#5                 F5
Forever and ever we both will be one
     D#5                      F5
The maiden, the fair and the young
Fell in love

G5              F5
Will you still wait for me?
C5              D#5
Will you still cry for me?
A#5       F5       G5
Come and take my hand
G5              F5
Will you still wait for me?
C5              D#5
Will you still cry for me?
A#5       F5       G5
Come and take my hand
                 
          G5        F5                 C5               G5
There's a moment in life when all the years will pass by
        G5               F5             C5
And the eyes filled with tears we once shed
   G5        F5             C5         G5
We recognize failures, the desperate cries
       G5       F5               G5
Of the ones who believed in our lies

   G5                   F5    
Whenever I'll go you'll be with me
   C5
My first though and my last
       G5              F5
Though we'll depart in bitterness
    C5
One day you'll understand

      G5   F5
Carry on
  C5
Beloved maiden, mine
      G5   F5
Carry on
      C5
Or we have to pay the price

G5             F5
Will you still wait for me?
C5              D#5
Will you still cry for me?
A#5       F5       G5
Come and take my hand
G5             F5
Will you still wait for me?
C5              D#5
Will you still cry for me?
A#5       F5       G5
Come and take my hand


( G5 , F5 )
Yesterday's memories and melodies
Are gone with the wind, so sad
Snow-white her hands and golden her hair
But she's not the one
Out in the emptiness where everything's pale
There is no sign of you, I'm alone
How I wish you would be here, I'm alone
Telling me it's alright

D#5                        F5
Come rest your head
Come rest your head
Come rest your head
Come rest your head

( G5 , F5 , G5 )

    G5         F5             C5
I'm alone and sadness reigns in my heart
    G5        F5             G5
As long as we live it won't go away
       G5      F5      C5    
We are one but torn apart

G5             F5
Will you still wait for me?
C5              D#5
Will you still cry for me?
A#5       F5       G5
Come and take my hand
G5             F5
Will you still wait for me?
C5              D#5
Will you still cry for me?
A#5       F5       G5
Come and take my hand


G5          F5
Proudly it stands
   C5              G5
Until the world's end
       G5        F5       G5
The victorious banner of love
