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

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