Revelations chords by Iron Maiden

O God of earth and altar
  G         Am
Bow down and hear our cry
Our earthly rulers falter
  G        Am
Our people drift and die
The walls of gold entombe us
The swords of scorn divide
Take not thy thunder from us
  G       Am
But take away our pride

Am           Cadd9
Just a babe in a black abyss
C             G
No reason for a place like this
Am           Cadd9      G
The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain
Am
An easy way for the blind to go
C

A clever path for the fools who know
Am        F      C        G
The secret of the hanged man - the smile on his lips

Am
The light of the blind youll see
           G Am
The venom that tears my spine
           G          Am
The eyes of the nile are opening - youll see

Am
She came to me with a serpents kiss
           Cadd9    G
As the eye of the sun rose on her lips
Am                Cadd9
Moonlight catches silver tears I cry
           Am
So we lay in a black embrace

And the seed is sown in a holy place
C                 G
And I watched and I waited for the dawn

The light of the blind youll see
The venom that tears my spine
The eyes of the nile are opening - youll see

Am
Bind all of us together
 G         Am
Ablaze of hope and free

No storm or heavy weather
   G          Am
Will rock the boat youll see
                Cadd9
The time has come to close your eyes
  G         Am
And still the wind and rain

For the one who will be king
  G       Am
The watcher in the ring
G   Am
