     A5                         G5
The high priest of money looks down on the river 
     F5          G5                     E5
The dawn coming up on his kingdom of gold
          A5                     G5         A5
When the rim of the sun sends an arrow of silver
     F5           E5                         A5
He prays to the gods of the bought and the sold

    A5                        G5          A5
He turns to his symbols, his ribbons of numbers 
      F5           G5                       E5
They circle and spin on their mystical scroll 
    A5                         G5           A5
He looks for a sign while the city still slumbers
         F5               E5              A5   A5  A5
And the ribbons and the river forever unroll

                   A5   A5  G5
In his kingdom of gold
     C5      D5  D5  D5
His kingdom of gold
        D5      A5  A5  G5
Kingdom of gold
     C5      D5  D5  C5

               G5           A5
On the horizon   an enemy haven 
        F5         G5                      E5
Sends traces of smoke high up into the sky 
   A5                        G5         A5
A pack of dog jackals and a rabble of ravens
        F5            E5                      A5
Who?ll come for his fortress, his castle on high

                   A5   A5  G5

    A5                    G5             A5
His axes and armour will conquer these devils
     F5         G5                       E5 
The turbulent raiders will falter and fall 
       A5                      G5                A5
Their leaders be taken, their camps burned and levelled
         F5           E5                    A5
They?ll hang in the wind from his citadel walls
