[Intro]
Am Dm/A 4x
A7sus4 A7
DmFifty thousand F7sus4men were sent to Dmdo the will of Gmone.Gm7/F EbMaj7
DmHis claim was phrased quite sF7sus4imply, though he Dmnever voiced it louGbMaj7d,
I Fm7am Ebm7he, the DbchosGben Bb/Fone.
In Dmhis name they could F7sus4slaughter, for Dmhis name they could Gmdie.Gm7/F EbMaj7
DmThough many there were belF7sus4ieved in him, still Dmmore were sure he GbMaj7lied,
But Fm7they'll Ebm7fight the DbbattGble Bb/Fon.
Then one whose Cfaith had died Bb/F
Fled back up the Cmountainside, Bb/F
But before the Ctop was made, Bb/F
A misplaced Am7footfall made him Gm7stray
From the Gmpath preF7/Ebpared for him.DbMaj7
Off of the Fmmountain, Bbm6
On to a Dbdimwilderness of Fice.
This Dmunexpected F7sus4vision made them Dmstand and shake with Gmfear, Gm7/F EbMaj7
But Dmnothing was his F7sus4fright compared with Dmthose who saw him appGbMaj7ear.
TerFm7ror Ebm7filled their Dbminds Gbwith Bb/Fawe.
Simple were the Cfolk who lived Bb/F
Upon this Cfrozen wave. Bb/F
So not surprising Cwas their thought, Bb/F
This is he, Am7gods chosen one, Gm7
Who's Gmcome to F7save us from DbMaj7
All our opFmpressors. Bbm6
We shall be Dbdimkings on this AbMaj7world. Fm7 AbMaj7 Fm7
AbFollow me! Fm7
DbI'll play the game you want me,
Gb7Until I find a way back hAbome. Fm7 Ab Fm7
AbFollow me! Fm7
DbI give you strength inside you,
Gb7Courage to win your battles
B/EbNo, Db/Ebno, Cm/Fno, Cm/Fthis B/Ebcan't Db/Ebgo Cm/Fon,
Cm/FThis B/Ebwill Db/Ebbe Cm/Fall Cm/Fthat I fled Cmfrom.
Let me Cmrest for a Gwhile.
G Em6 GMaj7 Em6 GMaj7 A7/G GMaj7 C#m7b5
He walked into a Dmvalley,
All alCone.
There he Cm7talked with Bbmwater, and Ebadd9then with the Fvine.

AmThey Dmtravelled cross the F7sus4plateau of ice, Dmup to its eGmdge. Gm7/F EbMaj7
DmThen they crossed a F7sus4mountain range and Dmsaw the final GbMaj7plain.
Still Fm7he Ebm7urged the DbpeopGble Bb/Fon.
Then, on a Cdistant slope, Bb/F
He observed one Cwithout hope Bb/F
Flee back up the Cmountainside. Bb/F
He thought he recoAm7gnised him by his Gm7walk,
AndGm by the F7way he fell, DbMaj7
And by the Fmway he Bbm6
Stood up, and Dbdimvanished into Fair.
