BLOOD – Sonata Arctica 
Acoustic version by sinForge xJp


G                     Bm                      D
  At first you kindle life, you place it in a man
                   A                         
This man, he has a heart ...that's filled with fire  
G                     Bm                         D
  The man will have a wife, the wife creates the home
                  A                                G
They multiply and so, their hearts are filled with fear              
                  Bm                          D
The man creates a wall, he arms, defends them all 
                      A
This fear becomes his fall  


(Bm)                      
"Blood is a bodily fluid in animals that 
        (D)
Delivers necessary substances such as  
                    (Bm)                     
Nutrients and oxygen to the cells and 
                                   (D) 
Transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells."  

 
             A                          G     
The color of life an arrow of fear made flow
       Em     G      A              F#m             G        Bm 
Auburn rivers in the snow dance the death of fading peace of mind  


(Bm)                                      D                            
Kept awake by the night of the twilight's cold, sad weeps 
Bm                                   D
What the child of Orion has sown his cubs will reap 
            A                           G
The fire is out, and there's an ominous silence 
           Em       G      A               F#m               G
But he can see them in the dark, under the moon, the shadows find them      


G                     Bm
Wolf – stares in your eyes
                D
Blink first and die
           A       
Beauty and fear, of wolves and of people   


Bm                                              D
There's a cave on the hills in the woods not so far away
Bm                                      D                      A
Never once had he seen the descent of majestic gray coming his way  
                          G            Em          G        A
Now he can see those blue eyes burning through the darkened night 
             F#m             G
He knows the fur, he used to love her...     


Bm       A    D             G
Ready or not, there will be blood
Bm        A        D       G         Bm A     D          G
Life is a gift you have no lease for anymore, there will blood     
Bm           A   D               G
You will buy our blood with your own blood 
Bm           A   D               G    
You will buy our blood with your own blood     


    Bm                A        G
The last thing you'll see is a wolf
                  Bm                    D
It stares in your eyes, blink first and die     
           A
Beauty and fear within   
G                 Bm                 D
  Who's more of a beast, a king or a priest?
              A
What do you believe?  


A... C#m... E... B...
A... C#m... E... B... 


Bm
   The wolves or the people
D            Am     
   Things we fear... wolves or the people 
D         Am    
   Wolves fear the fear of the people 

D                                 Am        D     Am  D  Am
Think, how one fearful man can destroy this world  


A                     C#m                     E
  At first you kindle life, you place it in a man 
                   B                              
This man, he has a heart, that's filled with fire  
A                     C#m                        E
  The man will have a wife, the wife creates the home
                  B                                
They multiply and so, their hearts are filled with fear  


(B)                    
Maybe men cannot live when their hearts 
        D#m                 F#           
Are not filled with fire instead of love 
    C#                      
For fear is a powerful thing
B                                       D#m                F#              
  Maybe only the might and the power of fear maintains our life 
            C#                          B
We function when it's controlled by denial 
 

(B)              D#m                   F#
The wolf in your eyes blinks first and dies 
           C#                              B
Beauty and fear, the wolves and the people  
                    D#m                      F#
Those hills have no eyes, but they hear your cries 
           C#                                         B
Beauty and fear, the blood, the wolves and the people
