Dm Dm Dm A# C
[Verse 1]
Dm Dm
Bathed in the rust of moon
Dm A# C
Is the death beds lullaby
Dm Dm
Sung so softly with the stars
Dm A# C
Reflected in her eyes
[Chorus]
Am G
It's the blaze that beckons men
C Am
Into the woods of beaten path
Am G
Is the sight of the fire that
C Am Am
No maiden's eyes should have...
Am G
Iron does as iron's told
C Am
And drinks of life's red gold
Am G
But shame won't leave with dying breathe
C Am Am
The life that wants it's own... death
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Dm Dm
And the forest hums its silent hymn
Dm A# C
Heard by those of solitude
Dm Dm
As mist it wells, up the brook's dark banks
Dm A# C
Bewitched by these fir woods
[Chorus]
Am G
It's the blaze that beckons men
C Am
Into the woods of beaten path
Am G
Is the sight of the fire that
C Am Am
No maiden's eyes should have...
Am G
Iron does as iron's told
C Am
And drinks of life's red gold
Am G
But shame won't leave with dying breathe
C Am Am
The life that wants it's own... death
