Standard (EADGBE)

When you go they'll wrap me in linen

 Kiss my lips once before they turn pale

 On this morn you ride to the haunted mountain

 And no one will hear of this tale

I have carried a blade from a young age

And I value the skills I have kept

I have but one fear, to end in a cage

So I go with a mind full of death.

 And oh, I would have followed you down to the end

 My captain my king.

 And oh, I would have followed you down to the paths of the dead

 But I ride to find my own meaning

When you go I'll shed these maiden's clothes

And my lips move with prayer on my breath

As a boy or a man I can face the blackness

For we meet with the armies of death

And oh I would have followed you down to the end

My captain my king

And oh I would have followed you down to the paths of the dead

But I ride to find my own meaning.

 Fire consumes the heart that teaches

 The captain of evil to fall

 Desire as pure as a man that reaches

 The humble hero in us all

 Oh I would have followed you down to the end

 My king

 And oh I would have followed you down to the paths of the dead

 But I ride to find my own meaning.
