 Am   Em   D   Emx3
Intro Verse: [Optionally Spoken]
AmAnd it shall come to pass that what men made shall be Emshattered,
Dand the Shadow shall lie 'cross the Pattern of the EmAge,
Amand the Dark One shall once more lay his hand upon the Emworld of man.
DWomen shall weep and Emmen quail as the nAmations of the earth are rent like Emrotting cloth.
AmNeither shall anything Cstand or abide...
Verse:
AmOne shall be born to face the EmShadow,
Dborn once more as he was born Embefore,
Amand shall be born again, Emtime without end.
AmThe Dragon shall be CReborn,
Amand there will be wailing and Emgnashing of teeth.
DIn sackcloth shall he clothe the Empeople,
Amand he shall break the world again by his Emcoming,
Dtearing apart all ties that Embind.
AmLike the unfettered dawn shall he Emblind us,
Dyet shall the Dragon Reborn confront the EmShadow,
Amand his blood shall give Emus the Light.
DLet tears flow, O ye pEmeople.
AmWeep for your salCvation.
Chorus:
AmTwice and twice Emshall he be marked,
Dtwice to live, and Gtwice to die.
Once the heron, to set his path.
Twice the heron, to name him true.
Once the Dragon, for remembrance lost.
Twice the Dragon, for the price he must pay.
Verse:
AmAnd it shall come, in the days when the EmDark Hunt rides,
Dwhen the right hand falters and the Gleft hand strays,
Amthat mankind shall come to the EmCrossroads of Twilight,
Dand all that is, all that was, and Gall that will be
Amshall balance on the Empoint of a sword,
Amwhile the winds of the Shadow Cgrow.
Chorus
Verse:
AmTwice dawns the day when his Emblood is shed.
DOnce for mourning, Emonce for birth.
AmRed on black, the EmDragon’s blood
Dstains the rock of EmShayol Ghul.
AmIn the Pit of Doom shall his Cblood free men Dfrom the SEmhadow.
