We rode the rivers of the Eastern trail

Following the wind in our sails

And the rhythm of the oars
Am G
No shelter in this hostile land

Constantly on guard

Ready to fight and defend

Ours ships 'til the bitter end

We came under attack
Dm Em
I received a deadly wound
F Am
A spear was forced into my back

Still I fought on

When I am dead
F G
Lay me in a mound
Am G
Raise a stone for all to see
F G
Runes carved to my memory
Here I lie on the river bank
Am G
When I am dead
F G
Lay me in a mound
Am G
Place my weapons by my side

For the journey to Hall up high
Am G
When I am dead

Lay me in a mound
Am G
Raise a stone for all to see
F G
Runes carved to my memory
