Am G F Am
Along a road in Hardorn, the place called Stony Tor
C G Dm Am G
A fearful band of farmers flees karsite border war
Am G Dm G
A frighted band of farmers, their children and their wives
F Am G F G Am
Seek refuge from a tyrant who wants more than just their lives
C D C G
Now up rides Herald Vanyel "Why then such haste" says he
C G F C
Now who is it persuing,who's anger do you flee?
C G C G
You are all of Hardorn why seek you Valdemar?
F C D F G Am
Is Festil no protection nor bide all his men too far?
Am G F Am
Oh Vanyel, Herald Vanyel, We flee now for our lives
Am G Dm G
Lord Nedran would enslave us, our childeren and our wives
Am G Dm G
He'd give our souls to demons, our bodies to his men
F Am G F G Am
King Festil has not heeded or he happens not to ken
C D C G
Now up speaks Herald Vanyel,"The border is not far"
C G F C
But you are all fo Hardorn, and not of Valdemar
C G C G
You are not Rendale's people can call not on his throne
F C D F G Am
But damned if I will see you left so helpless on your own
Am G F Am
So forth goes Herald Vanyel, and onward does he ride
Am G Dm G
On Stony Tor he waits then, Yfandes at his side
Am G Dm G
With Nedran's men approaching, he calls out from on high
F Am G F G Am
You shall not pass, Lord Nedran, nay I shall not let you by
C D C G
Now only Herald Vanyel stands blocking Nedran's way
C G F C
Now who are you, fool nothing, that dares to tell me nay
C G C G
Now up speaks Herald Vanyel, his voice like brittle glass
F C D F G Am
The Herald Mage called Vanyel and says I you shall not pass
Am G F Am
Now there stands great Lord Nedran, behind him forty men
Am G Dm G
With wizard there beside him, he pales and speaks again
Am G Dm G
So you are Herald Vanyel this place is not your land
F Am G F G Am
So heed me Herald Vanyel and now turn aside your hand
Am G F Am
Let be I'll give you silver and I shall give you gold
Am G Dm G
And I shall give you jewels fair that sparkle bright and bold
Am G Dm G
And I shall give you pearls, all treasures of the sea
F Am G F G Am
If you will turn aside here leaving these poor fools to me
C D C G
What need have I of silver with sweet Yfandes here
C G F C
And all the gold I cherish is sunlight bright and clear
C G C G
The only jewel I treasure's a bright and shining star
F C D F G Am
I protect all helpless not just those of Valdemar
Am G F Am
Now I shall give you beauty, women slaves and men
Am G Dm G
And I shall give you power you'll never see again
Am G Dm G
And I shall give you mansions and I shall give you land
F Am G F G Am
If you will turn aside this day, aside and hold you hand
C D C G
Now beauty held in bondage is beauty that is lost
C G F C
And land and mansions blood bought come too high at the cost
C G C G
The power I have already, all power is a jade
F C D F G Am
So turn ye back Lord Nedran if of me you are afraid
Am G F Am
Lord Nedran backs his stailion, his wizard he comes nigh
Am G Dm G
Prepare youself bold Vanyel, for you shall surely die
Am G Dm G
The wizard calls his demons, the demons he commands
F Am G F G Am
And Vanyel, Herald Vanyel only raises empty hands
Am G F Am
The wizard calls his demons, the sky above turns black
Am G Dm G
The demons strike at Vanyel, he stands and holds them back
Am G Dm G
The demons strike at Vanyel, they strike and hurt him sore
F Am G F G Am
But Vanyel stands defiantly to raise his hands once more
