Shiny minstrels of worn out time -|
look down upon you and me | Same as The Intro (C Arpeggio)
sing their praise of a time long gone |
when freedom meant more than life -|
F G
Kings would hold on to all Gods given
F C <-----------Repeat intro here on C
the swords and armour bright
F G
Ground would shake below his feet
F G Am Bm
the day of the freedom call
Chorus
C G F C (b) <--- only the note
And it's all in the way that every kingdom fall
Am F G C
and it's all in the way all good men must go
King is afraid to lose the grip
he's tired and not so well
He'll walk all night on shaky ground
and dine with the dogs of hell.
A single whisper will crack the wall
a song is a wrecking ball
Lost in the vortex of friend and foe
a solitaire in his shell
And it's all in the way that every kingdom fall
and it's all in the way all good men must go
The ending is same as the intro but with slight variations
(This Is how i usually end the song)

Lost in the vortex of friend and foe

And it's all in the way that every king must fall
and it's all in the way all good men must go
