[Verse 1]
Em
Rumors heard
From a little black bird
Em
The edges of a prophecy
The pieces I have learned
A
Said the daughter of the reaper
Has been searching for the keeper
G D
And I fear she'll let me burn
Em
Locked tight up
Em
In the tower on top
Of the domain of humanity
E
The godhood that I've earned
A
When you're holding on to majesty
You'd fear the hunt, a travesty
G D
That balance may return
[Chorus]
Em
When you're sinful to the bone
Unholy
C
And you've claimed yourself a throne
Like me
A
Wield power of your own
Making
G D B Em
Godhunter's gonna hunt you down
If you're something more than flesh
Em
Ascended
C
And you've taken on the rest
To end it
A
Then she'll find you in a dream
Tormented
G D B Em
Godhunter's gonna hunt you down
Em Em Em A G D D#
[Verse 2]
E Em
Fear confined
To the depths of my mind
Em
For what could be such a threat to me
The conqueror of time
A
Yet the whispers of a reckoning
Have kept the spirits beckoning
G G D D#
To look upon my crime
Em
Blood and war
When the world is no more
Em
She's been watching for a century
With hatred, and with scorn
A
If you know the hunter's coming
Then you hide or keep on running
G
'Cause she's slain the gods before
D B Em C A G D Em
[Chorus]
Em
When you're sinful to the bone
Unholy

And you've claimed yourself a throne

If you're something more than flesh

And you've taken on the rest
To end it

Then she'll find you in a dream
Tormented
G D B Em
Godhunter's gonna hunt you down
[Verse 3]
Em
Don't let her see your power in the daylight
Don't let her see it when you bring the storm
A G D
To the master of the eldritch she's a growing bed of thorns
Em
Dark cults, leaders of the night
G
Tell the tales of a fright
D
From a ghost of the future days
Am
G holy crusade
On the gods decayed
G B
To end our violent ways
Em
Lost kings, fallen in the mist
E
Made their names on a list
G D
And the hunt was carried through
Am
G price for the past
When your name is last
G D#
And the hunter comes for you
[Verse 4]
Em
Of all the free
She has none left but me
G D
And my loyal knights have passed with time
Am
G god and a throne, locked up all alone
G B
In the kingdom I called mine
Em
Dreams of a being
From the watcher unseen
G D
Now he warned me she'll come to take his due
Am
"The hate in your head, she has more" he said
G B
"The godhunter waits for you"
Em C A G D
[Chorus]

When you're sinful to the bone
