[Verse]
Em C
I laid myself down into bed
D Asus2 Em
To sleep away the night
Em C
A vision from inside my head
D Asus2 Em
A sun with no sunlight
Em C
Death would grip humanitiy
D Asus2 Em
A new Solar Ice Age
Em C D Asus2 Em
An Earth that no science could save
Em C
I woke sweat running down my face
D Asus2 Em
I never felt so strange
Em C
To think that this could be our fate
D Asus2 Em
To freeze in darkened pain
Em C
Then sleep brought back the dreams to me
D Asus2 Em
Of wars to turn the tide
Em C D Asus2 Em
The world committing nuclear suicide
Em C D Asus2 Em
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
Inside this hazy world of dreams I've never known
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
I've seen the wrath come down and turn mankind to stone
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
And then I realized that this be Eschatus
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
A holocaust of flames to burn Midgard to dust
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
It has been called by many names throughout the years
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
Still they all mean the same, man burning in his fears
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
The Anti-Christ will come and rise up through the sea
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
The Dreams of Eschaton have shown this all to me
[Chorus]
F#5 E5 G5 D5
Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die
F#5 E5 G5 D5
Remember well my friend a warlord never cries
F#5 E5 G5 D5
These are the words that I've heard inside my mind
F#5 E5 G5 D5
When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time
[Verse]
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
I hope that you can see that this is not a game
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
We don't just sing to thee to win fortune and fame
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
The souls of all of us are priceless to the last
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
These dreams could be our fate of living life too fast
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
And so I say to thee watch the skies above
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
For when the darkness falls and rivers turn to blood
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
Then Arthur shall return to fight for peace and truth
E5 C5 D5 A5 E5
To slay the beast of hell and save the righteous few
[Chorus]
F#5 E5 G5 D5
Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die
F#5 E5 G5 D5
Remember well my friend a warlord never cries
F#5 E5 G5 D5
These are the words that I've heard inside my mind
F#5 E5 G5 D5
When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time
