[INTRO] (RIFF)
[Verse]
Em D Watch your tongue or have it cut from your head Em D Save your life while keeping whispers unsaid Em D Children roam the streets now orphans of war Em D Bodies hanging in the streets to adore Am C Am G Royal flames will carve a path in chaos Am C Am G Bringing daylight to the night Bm D Bm A Death is riding in the town with armour Bm D Bm A They've come to take all your rights
[Chorus]
Em D C D Hail to the king Hail to the one Em D C D Kneel to the crown Stand in the sun
Hail to the king
[Verse]
Em D Blood is spilt while holding keys to the throne Em D Born again but it's too late to atone Em D No mercy from the edge of the blade Em D They'll escape and learn the price to be paid Am C Am G Let the water flow with shades of red now Am C Am G Arrows blackout all the light Bm D Bm A Death is riding in the town with armour Bm D Bm A They've come to grant you your rights
[Chorus]
[SOLO] Em Em D B7 (x2)

[BRIDGE] (RIFF)
There's a taste of fear
When the henchmen call
I am fierce to tame it
I am fierce to claim it all
[CHORUS] (x2)
