The Bard's Song

Blind Guardian

Ami         G 
Now you all know 
    Emi             Ami 
The bards and their songs 
     Ami             G 
When hours have gone by 
Emi           Ami 
I'll close my eyes 
     Ami       G 
In a world far away 
   Emi       Ami 
We may meet again 
    Ami         G 
But now hear my song 
          Emi         Dmi 
About the dawn of the night 
      C    G   Ami    Emi 
Let's sing the bards' song 
 
 
  Dmi Ami      Dmi      Ami 
Tomor-row will take us away 
Dmi      Ami 
Far from home 
Dmi         Ami  G        Dmi 
No one will ever know our names 
        F            G      Dmi 
But the bards' songs will remain 
  Dmi Ami      Dmi      Ami 
Tomor-row will take it away 
    Dmi       Ami 
The fear of today 
Dmi        F 
It will be gone 
    Ami 
Due to our magic songs 
 
 
        Ami      G 
There's only one song 
Emi        Ami 
Left in my mind 
Ami        G 
Tales of a brave man 
    Emi            Ami 
Who lived far from here 
        Ami            G 
Now the bard songs are over 
    Emi          Ami 
And it's time to leave 
Ami           G               Emi 
No one should ask you for the name 
       Dmi 
Of the one 
    C     G   Ami G 
Who tells the sto-ry 
 
 
  Dmi Ami      Dmi      Ami 
Tomor-row will take us away 
Dmi      Ami 
Far from home 
Dmi         Ami  G        Dmi 
No one will ever know our names 
        F            G      Dmi 
But the bards' songs will remain 
  Dmi Ami Dmi         Ami 
Tomor-row all will be known 
    Dmi         Ami 
And you're not alone 
   Dmi       Ami 
So don't be afraid 
       G        Dmi 
In the dark and cold 
           F            G    C  G  Ami 
'Cause the bards' songs will rema---in 
     C   G      Ami 
They all will remain 
 
C     G            Ami 
In my thoughts and in my dreams 
        C      G     Ami 
They're always in my mind 
      C        G        Ami 
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men 
    C 
And elves 
     G          Ami 
Come close your eyes 
        F   G    Emi 
You can see them too
