| Em   G5  | D   G5  A5  | (4x)
| Em  | C  | Am  | C  | 



🤘 Verse 1:
Em                         C 
 A war in heaven in god's rage 
                           Am 
He put me in this burning cage 
                   C 
Holy fury locks me in 
                         Em 
Imprisoned by my deadly sin 
                       C 
Every hour the shadow king 
                              Am 
Wonders what his clock will bring 
                                     C 
I've lived and loved and that's for sure 
                       Em 
My fatal quest forevermore

C              D       G5    A5       Em 
The days of future past to wander on the shore 
   C               D       G5    A5   Em 
A king without a queen to die forevermore 
    C             D 
To wander in the wasteland 
   G5     A5    Em 
Immortal to the end 
 C               D 
Waiting for the judgement 
         G5        A5   Em 
But the judgement never ends 


🤘 Verse 2: 
Em                             C 
 Once crucified you forgave it all 
                              Am 
But my own life condemned to fall 
                           C 
Where's the glory in your name 
                                 Em 
My twisted soul still burns in flame 
                         C 
Hark you angels hear my call 
                      Am 
Father witness to my fall 
                              C 
Between the lines of sin and pain 
                              Em 
I walk the earth now doomed again 


 
     C              D       G5    A5       Em 
The days of future past to wander on the shore 
   C               D       G5    A5   Em 
A king without a queen to die forevermore 
    C             D 
To wander in the wasteland 
   G5     A5    Em 
Immortal to the end 
 C               D 
Waiting for the judgement 
         G5        A5   Bm 
But the judgement never ends
