      A minorAm   C majorC    G+G              BB           E minorEm
I'll put an end to all the light that you shed on this world in its darkened state."

    A minorAm    C majorC    G+G            BB                 E minorEm
you'll doom the world to wander the night with no light to guide the paths that men seek."

*(Do this when transitioning from EM to AM, recommend using your third finger to make
transitioning to the other cord smoother.)

without a means of defense for all those blind.

The skies will call forth thunderous storms from afar.

When you're dead, there'll be no grave to remember your name.

For your greed brings your end and there's no one but yourself to blame.
