Key: D
Introduction:
Dm Gm
I heard a whisper on my shoulder
Eb Dm
Pretending life is worth the fight
Dm F#m Gm
O can you hear the song of thunder
Dm
When fear strangles a soldier's pride
Am Bb
And on the surface of the waters
A Dm
Will dance reflections of the fire in the night
Dm Gm
I remember cheering from towers
Eb Dm
A face is smiling in the light
Dm F#m Gm
I remember the bells, the flowers
Ebm D
Those days are dying in the dark
G Eb
Boy I was shaped for the fury
G
Now I pay the price
Eb
Of the human race's vice
G
And I was promised
Eb G
The glorious ending of a knight
Eb5
But the crown is out of sight
Dm Gm
I'm slowly drifting into slumber
Eb Dm
Cause I have lost the force to fight
Dm F#m Gm
It's like a cold hand on my shoulder
Dm
I'll see you on the other side
Am Bb
And in the arms of endless anger
A Dm
Will end the story of a soldier in the dark
