[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Sixteen years
[C]Sixteen [G]banners uni[D]ted
over [Em]the field
Where the [C]good shepherd [D]grieves
[Em]Desperate men,
[C]desper[G]ate women di[D]vided
Spreading their [Em]wings 'neath
[C]the [D]falling [G]leaves
Fortun[D]e

[Verse 2]
[Em]calls
I [C]stepped [G]forth from the shad[D]ows
to the market[Em]place
Merchants and [C]thieves, hungry for power[D],
[Em]my last deal gone down
She's [C]smelling [G]sweet like the
mead[D]ows where she [Em]was born
On midsummer's [C]eve, [D]near [G]the tower

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][C][G]
[D][C][G][D][C][D][G][C][G]
The cold-blooded [D]moon

[Verse 3]
[Em]
moon
The [C]captain [G]waits above
the celebra[D]tion
Sending his [Em]thoughts to a
[C]beloved mai[D]d
Whose ebony [Em]face is [C]beyond[G]
communica[D]tion
The captain is [Em]down but still believing
that his [C]love will [D]be repaid

[Verse 4]
[G]They shaved her[D] hea[Em]d
She was torn between [G]Jupiter
and Apol[D]lo
[Em]A messenger arrived with
a [C]black nightingale
[D]I seen her on the[Em] stairs and I[C]
[G]couldn't help but follow[D]
Follow her [Em]down past the fountain where they [C]lif[D]ted

[Interlude 2]
her veil
[G][D][C][G][D][C][G][D][C][D][G]
I stumbled [D]to my

[Verse 5]
[Em]feet
I rode past de[G]struction in the [D]ditches
With [Em]the stitches still mending
'neath a [C]heart-shaped tattoo
[D]tattoo
Renegade [Em]priests an[C]d
[G]treacherous young [D]witches
Were [Em]handing out the flowers that
[C]I'd [D]given to [G]you

[Verse 6]
[Em]The palace of mirrors
Where [C]dog [G]soldiers are re[D]flected
The endless [Em]road and the
[C]wailing of [D]chimes
The empty [Em]rooms [C]where
[G]her memory is protec[D]ted
Where [Em]the angels' voices whisper to [C]the souls of
[D]previous times

[Interlude 3]
[G][D][C][G][D][C][G][D][C][D][G][D]
[G]
She wakes [D]him up

[Verse 7]
[Em]
Forty-eight hours hours later[G],
the sun is break[D]ing
Near broken [Em]chains,
mountain [C]laurel and rolling [D]rocks
She's begging [Em]to know what [C]meas
[G]ures he now will be taking[D]
He's pulling her [Em]down and she's clutching
on to [C]his long [D]golden lock[G]s

[Verse 8]
Gentlemen, [Em]he said
I don't [G]need your organiza[D]tion,
I've shined [Em]your shoes
I've moved your moun[C]tains
and marked your [D]cards
But Eden is [Em]burning,
either getting [G]ready for elimina[D]tion
Or else your [Em]hearts must have the courage for [C]the chan[D]ging
of the [G]guards

[Interlude 4]
[G][D][C][G][D][C][G][D][C][D][G]
[Em]

[Verse 9]
Peace will [Em]come
With [C]tran[G]quility and [D]splendor
on the wheels of [Em]fire
But will bring [C]us no [D]reward
when her false idols [Em]fall
[C]And [G]cruel death surren[D]ders with
its [Em]pale ghost retreating
Between [C]the King and [D]the Queen of [G]Swords
