🤘 Verse :

Em
Longboats have been sighted
        C           D         Em
And the evidence of war has begun many Nordic fighting men
      C                      D            Em
Their swords and shields all gleam in the sun call to arms defend yourselves
    C                  D              Em
Get ready to stand and fight for your lives judgement day has come around
   C                 D              Em
So be prepared don't run stand your ground
B                             E/G# A
They're coming in from the sea
B                     E/G# A
They've come the enemy
B                      E/G# A
Beneath the blazing sun
B                       E/G# A
The battle has to be won


🤘 Chorus:

  D# G#     D# G#
Invaders pillaging!
  D# G#  D# G#    Em
Invaders looting!


🤘 Verse 2:

Em                            C              D          Em
Set ablaze the campfires and alert the other men from inland
                                  C              D          Em
Warning must be given and there's not enough men here for a stand
                                   C           D           Em
The Vikings are too many, much too powerful to take on our own
                                C                 D       Em
We must have reinforcements, we cannot fight this battle alone
B                          E/G# A
They're coming over the hill
B                   E/G# A
They've come to attack
B                            E/G# A
They're coming in for the kill
B                    E/G# A
There's no turning back


🤘 Chorus 2:

  D# G#     D# G#   Em
Invaders Marauding!

🤘 Verse 3:

Em                            C                D           Em
Axes grind and maces clash as wounded fighters fall to the ground
                                  C              D        Em
Severed limbs and fatal woundings bloody corpses lay all around
                                         C            D           Em
The smell of death and burning flesh the battle-weary fight to the end
                                 C              D           Em
The Saxons have been overpowered victims of the mighty Norsemen
B                    E/G# A
You'd better scatter and run
B                    E/G# A
The battle's lost and not won
B                    E/G# A
You'd better get away
B                    E/G# A
To fight another day


🤘 Chorus 3:

  D# G#  D# G#
Invaders Raping!
  D# G#  D#  G#
Invaders Plundering!
