[Intro]
C F C G C
[Verse 1]
C
Once I heard a serpent remark
F C
"If you try to evoke the spark
F C F C
You can fly through the dark with a red midnight raven
C7
To rule the battleground"
[Chorus 1]
F C F
So I drew my sword and got ready
C G C
But the lamb ran away with the crown
F C F
So I drew my sword and got ready
C G C
But the lamb ran away with the crown
[Verse 2]
C
Though the beast within me's a liar
F C
He made me glow with a strange desire
F C F C
And I rode on the fire, with a blue sacred opal
C7
To bless the battleground
[Chorus 2]
F
But I turned to see its reflection
C G C
But the lamb ran away with the crown
F G C
But I turned to see its reflection
C G C
But the lamb ran away with the crown
[Verse 3]
C
Once a demon lived in my brow
F C
I screamed and wailed and I cursed out loud
F C F C
And I sailed through the clouds on ten crested cardinals
C7
To guard my battleground
[Chorus 3] (repeat to fade out)
F C F
But I laughed so hard I cried
C G C
But the lamb ran away with the crown
F
But I laughed so hard I cried
C G C
But the lamb ran away with the crown
