[Intro clean] Em Em C C D Em Em [Intro Distortion] Em Em C C D Em Em Em C D Em C D C D G Em C D Em C D [Verse 1]
Em                  G            Am    C  D
Evening is falling, all still around me

Em                      G                        Am   C  D
The old crow is calling, but the landscape is at peace

Em                                  G                  Am  C D
Down the trail through this forest, through thicket we ride

Em                     G                Am     C  D
The unseen is watching from behind each stone and pine
[Verse 2]
C                                    D
Slowly the golden dise of the sun is setting

            G                     Em             E D
Beyond the rim of Nordland at the end of long day

C                                    D
Slowly the ominous dark descend upon all

   G                                  Em
Engulfing all land and heaven and the shore of Asa bay
[Pre-chorus]
Em                         C
Here lie the bones of our fathers long gone

D                            G D
Deep in the soil of these woods

Em                       C
Among these great trunks legends were born

D                         G   D
Here many great battles stood
[Chorus]
C
Trotting the trail, my stallion cautions

D                       G               Em
Present the spirits of foreverdark woods
[Instrumental] Em Em C C D Em Em [Verse 3]
Em                   G                   Am   C  D   Em
We rest by the fire, the shadows come to life by its light

Em                                  G               Am         C   D
Three brothers, sons of white wolf, observed by the eyes of the night
[Chorus]
C
Night is long where the sunlight is pale

    D                        G      Em
The fear is strong when you ride in the dawn

      E                 Em
Down foreverdark woods trail
[Pre Chorus]
Em                   C
Heavy the turf, bone meal and blood

D                           G   D
Raise high you pine towards sky

Em                      C
Firm in the soil, tree trunks of gods

D                         G         D
Like dragon ship masts straight and high
[Chorus]
C
Reaching the glade, ride on to Asa bay

D                          G               Em
Watched by the spirits of foreverdark woods
