[Intro 1]
[C#][C]
The flag that [C5]I once

[Verse 1]
[G]pla[C5]nted
[Cm]as a[C] king [C5]I ab[C]ando[G]ned
[Eb5]And no[G]w I[C] reclaim this[C5] banner [G]by[C5][Eb][C#]
God my [C5]sword and my [G]name[C][Eb5][G][C5]
In a truce sealed by [G]blood [C]within this
metal [C5]skin and [G]all that [C#]I ow[C]n
[C5]Blood, bone, and [C]courage [Cm]in my v[C5]ein
[C#]s an[C5]d the heart that pum[G]ps it[D][Eb5][G]

[Verse 2]
[C]Drink fro[Eb5]m the chal[Eb]ice and [C]be reborn
[D]And the land [Eb]with [Eb5]me,
it will change and trans[Eb]form

[Verse 3]
[C]A fighting man swo[C5]rn to [C]the que[C5]st it[Cm]
[C#]is the doom of[C] man that they f[G]orget
[C]I h[Eb5]ave aw[G]oke[C5]n the dragon[C] and a[C5]ll[Cm][C#]
around [C5]me the mist of his br[G]eath[C][Eb][G][C5]
Good and evil, there never [Cm]is one wi[C5]thout the ot[C#]h er[C5],
his [G]brother[C#][Eb][G][C5]
Always [C]there [C5]where I [G]least [C]ex [Eb]pect [C5]it,
[C#]it w[C5]ill burn me to cinder[G] s[Eb]
[G]The futures

[Verse 4]
[D]taken [Eb]root in
the present son
[D]Don't look into my [Eb]heart, least of [C]all [Eb]your [C]own

[Interlude 1]
[C][B][G][C][C5][C][C5][C][F#][C][C5][C]
[C5]
[C][G][F#][C][C5][C][F#][C]
[C5][C][C5][C][B][G][F#][C][C5][C][C5][C][B][C][F#][G][C#]
[C5]
[C]No man who [C5]is

[Verse 5]
[C]false [C5]can [Cm]win i[C#]n combat
[C5]against the trut[G]h[C#][Eb][G][C5]
[C]When he lies [C5]he murders some p[Cm]art of[C#] the world,
[C5]we must find what was lo[G]st[C#][Eb][G]
[C5]Hearth and home, wife and chil[G]d were[C5] not f[Cm]or m[C#]e,
[C5]I was not yet do[C]ne[Cm][G]
[C5]I ne[C]ver knew how[C5] emp[G]ty my [Cm]soul
[C#]was un[C5]til it w[C]as r[C5]e fi[G]lled
[C][Eb][D]

[Verse 6]
Mad dis[Eb]temper strikes
[C]both beggars [D]and Kings
The Nec[Eb]roman[D]cer's [C]hard
[Eb]teachings [C]of [Eb]war a[D]nd quest

[Verse 7]
[C]I a[C5]m given the r[C]ight[G] to be[C]ar a[Cm]rms and[C#]
[C5]power to [C]meet [G]justice[C#][C][G]
[C]I have l[Eb]ived through others for far too long,
[C]And car[D]ried my gui[Eb]lt, my causes, my sin[Eb] s[C]
[D]I hop[Eb]e in the her[C]eafter when
I owe no [D]more to the future
That I can be just a man
