[Intro 1]
[D][Dm][D][C#5][D][Dm][D][C#5][D][C#5][D][E5][C#m][C#5][D][C#5]
[D][C#m][D]
[C#5]I am

[Verse 1]
he that move in [D]the valleys[C#5]
Of the [D]damned, [C#5]making[C#] hast[D]e
[C#5]Persist[C#m]ent li[C#5]ke the[C#] rasp[C#5]s
at chains [D]of the [C#5]world[D][C#m]
[D]Into per[C#5]petual dementia
the crossroads [D]twirl[C#5]
[C#m]Here at the eye o[C#5]f the [C#m]storm[D][C#m]
But from an unusu[C]al[Cm]
tree my cane was [C5]cut[D]
[C#5]And it is[C#m] ever by my[C#5] side[D][Abm]
Wherever leads the trail
[E5]Whatever burden that
oppress [Ebm]the heart
[Abm]Where sorrows thrive
And shadows [C#m]linger everlasting[E5]
On vacant [Ebm]thrones[E5]
Behold a river [Bm]aflow[E5]
[Abm]Winding [E5]and twisting,
back to its [Bm]source[Ebm][Abm]

[Interlude 1]
[E][Abm][E5][F#5][Abm][E5][F#5]

[Verse 2]
[Abm]There goes our wa[E]y
[Abm]Through everlasting de[E5]cay[F#5]
[Abm]To where the Temple stands[E][E5]
[F#5]eternally[Ebm][E5][F#5][F#][Bm]
[Abm]Ours is a path of power
Edged by the remmants of [Ab]the slain
[Cm]Long have we walked upon [C]it[Cm]
But [Abm]ours is the patience of the pilgrim
Who journeys against the tide [A5]Ever
[Am]towards the [A5]Sanct[Am]uary
Beyond the shores [A5]of l[E5]ife an[Ebm]d Deat[E5]h[Ebm]

[Interlude 2]
[Ebm][Bm][Ebm]
[D][E][E5][G][Abm][Bm][E5][A5][G#m][Cm][C]

[Verse 3]
[D]For it has [C#5]made m[C#m]e a defier
of every [D]law
That robs [C#m]my kind of liberty and [D]grace[C#m]
[A]I am he [A5]that move in the valleys
of the [D]damned
And [C#m]none shall lessen m[C#5]y pace[C#m][D][C#5][D][C#]
[C#5]Be sie[D]ged, expir[C#m]ed and[C#]
[D]undone[C#m]
[D]The waste, from [C#m]whence [C#]I am [C#m]gone[D][A5][D][C#m][D]
[C#m][C#][Bm][D][C#][C#m][D][C#m][C#][D][C][E5][E][E5]
Behold the last of stars [Bm]ascend[Abm][Ebm]
[E]To mark the return
[E5]To the night without end[E]
[Abm]Where goes [E]our way
[Abm]Through everlasting decay[F#5]
[Abm]To where,
the Temple stand[E]s e[F#5]ternally[F#]
[Abm]In words, in dee[E]d
[Abm]In scars that ever bleed[E][F#]
[Abm]On towards the San[E]ctuary for[F#5]ever[F#]
[Ebm]Ours i[E5]n tr[E]iumph [F#]and eternal Death[Abm]
