The Premonition:

FF C#C#
        C# minorC#m
Remember when I told you how my
F# minorF#m
Kin is different in some ways?


C# minorC#m
And how you should not fall in love
F# minorF#m
With someone like me, anyway
A augmentedA     E MajorE    F# minorF#m    C# minorC#m
Between the lines, people see signs
A augmentedA          E MajorE  F# minorF#m     C# minorC#m
When they feel the sear, every day is fear
A augmentedA    Amaj7Amaj7    A major 6A6
And one night their torch will
E MajorE     D MajorD       G#G#
Find the girl without a name
    A augmentedA
And the one who has her
F#F#
Love is no more safe

BB                 C# minorC#m
And until I get my peace I'm but a shade

A augmentedA F# minorF#m C# minorC#m A augmentedA G#G#
C# minorC#m A augmentedA F# minorF#m G#G#

The Witch-Hunt:

G# minorG#m       F#F#        E MajorE      D#D#
The sun lit the White Mountain's snow covered peaks
    G# minorG#m     F#F#     E MajorE     D#D#
There I see you, amongst the good people, suffering
      G# minorG#m   F#F#    D#D#    E MajorE
She is the One, the unwanted, decidedly so
G# minorG#m     F#F# D#D#     E MajorE BB
'Cause she makes our children cry
    A augmentedA      G# minorG#m   F#F#
It's a fact, she is exactly that!
   BB     A augmentedA       G# minorG#m      F#F#
A augmentedA harbinger of death from the World of Witchcraft
      E MajorE      G# minorG#m      F#F#       D#D#  E MajorE
And she's feeding them cakes and her ale to this innocent boy
G# minorG#m   E MajorE      G# minorG#m F#F#
And her magic brings dismay

Exposing The Heathen:

A augmentedA C majorC

BB         A augmentedA  (C majorC BB)      A augmentedA   (C majorC BB)
I hear her in the wind
the bane of our town
       A augmentedA    (C majorC BB)    E MajorE
Come with me, father
I'm to expose a heathen

E MajorE     A augmentedA
In my home town
BB
No one's safe now
E MajorE         D MajorD  A augmentedA
Young love's been forbidden
BB                     B minorBm
For five-fold kisses, my only love had to die


Envy:

B minorBm
          A augmentedA        B minorBm    F#F#
Your crops are all flourishing, so what's the catch?
    B minorBm    A augmentedA         F#F#
I know what you are, the new evil unhatched
  G+G      B minorBm       A augmentedA      F#F#
As sure as the dawn, they will hear what I know
       E MajorE       F#F#      BB
And recognize you, and you'll be cleansed too


The Fear:

BB      A augmentedA
For the good, trusting people in town
     F#F#      BB
In their fear-stricken hearts
    A augmentedA      G# minorG#m      F#F#
Seeing skyclad's a sign like the Deathaura
E MajorE       G# minorG#m    F#F#             E MajorE
Every night, so painful's the memory of love in the dark
   G#G#     F#F#               A augmentedA
One wheel of the year ends their short lives in fear

BB         A augmentedA  (C majorC BB)       A augmentedA    (C majorC BB)
I hear her in the wind, the bane of our town
       A augmentedA (C majorC BB)   BB
Come with me, oh, father the heathen is exposed


The Grudge:

           F# minorF#m
In the age of burning times, you saved my life
    G+G        E MajorE
 The blaze grew ever higher
 BB            F# minorF#m
I was your Cunning Man  hiding in the light
  G+G         E minorEm - E MajorE
Now your land shall go sour

     E MajorE     C# minorC#m   BB
Your own fears will destroy everything
BB           C# minorC#m     BB
Envy consumes all, and "thou shall not
BB     C# minorC#m   F# minorF#m
Though it hurts
I must tell you
F# minorF#m - C# minorC#m - BB
I am truly the One
B minorBm
 Behind it all

🎸 Solo:

B minorBm E minorEm A augmentedA
(key change)

The Curse:
    D#mD#m
In the hands of time we all will die
                  C minorCm
The dead of night will devour your child
  D#mD#m
The creation o' beliefs that you've been fed
              C minorCm       C majorC
The fear, the unknown, the poison loved by death


The Flames:

C majorC
    G minorGm        G#G#
In the cool of the night air
       FF
Flames purify minds, where
    C majorC      G minorGm
Almost anyone could be the next
G#G#             FF     F minorFm
Unless morning finds all of them - - - somehow hexed

Endless Inquisition:


( Together
Today
For All Eternity)

C# minorC#m
I remember how you told me

Your kin's different, on that sunny day?
C# minorC#m
You made me smile
G# minorG#m        A augmentedA
'Cause I was just about to say the same thing

A augmentedA E MajorE F# minorF#m C# minorC#m

A augmentedA     E MajorE    F# minorF#m    C# minorC#m
So deeply entwined, love of a lifetime

A augmentedA               E MajorE         D MajorD
But they paid someone to say their torment has a name
  A augmentedA             F# minorF#m          C# minorC#m
And after all these years we get to be together for all eternity
