INTRO: Am, F, Em VERSE: Am G We rode the rivers of the Eastern trail F Deep in the land of the Rus' Am G Following the wind in our sails F And the rhythm of the oars Am G No shelter in this hostile land F Constantly on guard
Am G Ready to fight and defend F Ours ships 'til the bitter end BRIDGE: F Am We came under attack Dm Em I received a deadly wound F Am A spear was forced into my back Dm Em Still I fought on Am (C) G When I am dead F G Lay me in a mound Am (C) G Raise a stone for all to see F G Runes carved to my memory Here I lie on the river bank A long, long way from home Life is pouring out of me Soon I will be gone I tilt my head to the side And think of those back home I see the river rushing by Like blood runs from my wound Here I lie on wet sand I will not make it home I clench my sword in my hand Say farewell to those I love CHORUS Am (C) G When I am dead F G Lay me in a mound Am (C) G Place my weapons by my side F G For the journey to Hall up high Am (C) G When I am dead F G Lay me in a mound Am (C) G Raise a stone for all to see F G Runes carved to my memory
