Intro
Bm A F#m G A B
[Verse 1]
Bm A F#m
I heard the cries of an orphan
G A B
Mourning the passing of time
Bm
I felt pain
A F#m
Seep from the blood's absolution
G A B
Bled once by wonders divine
Bm
I am amazed
A F#m
Left in the ruins of greatness
G A B
And I'll keep their nightmare alive
Bm
Fighting in vain
A F#m
We are the fiends in the shadows
G A B
And I am the beast that survived
[Chorus]
A B
Here come the ravens
Bm G
To take what is mine
G
Their watching eyes
A Em
Waiting for the rest of me to die
A B
Here comes the reaper
Bm G
That hides from the light
G
Still hunting for
A Em
The heart that's still beating inside
A G A B
For these ravens to find
G A F#m A
(Here come the ravens)
G A B
G A F#m A
(Here come the ravens)
[Verse 2]
Bm A F#m
Tossed in a well long forgotten
G A B
The duty I had to fulfill
Bm
I can't remember
A F#m
Why I became a lost dreamer
G A B
For vengeance, or for the next kill
Bm
Locked in a tower
A F#m
I'll cut away what I've done
G A B
From the rest of the dreamers outside
Bm
Cursed in a portrait
A F#m
Made of this hunter's regrets
G A B
Of the mother I drowned in the tide
[Chorus]
A B
Here come the ravens
Bm G
To take what is mine
G
Their watching eyes
A Em
Waiting for the rest of me to die
A B
Here comes the reaper
Bm G
That hides from the light
G
Still hunting for
A Em
The heart that's still beating inside
A G A B
For these ravens to find
G A F#m A
(Here come the ravens)
G A B
G A F#m A
(Here come the ravens)
[Verse 3]
Bm A
Weep for the master that made me
F#m G A
And the raven that heard my last breath
Bm B
Long have the hunters pursued me
A G A
And tonight I'm your angel of death
B G
Fire, blood, and desire
A
Lost in the mire
G A
In desolation
B G
Lies, all of us die
A
And even now, I
G A
Bm left to the ravens
[Alt. Chorus]
A B
Here come the ravens
Bm G
To bury my pride
G
They're hunting me
A Em
And trails of my sorrow behind
A B
Here comes the new blood
Bm G
Where secrets should lie
G
To find rest
A Em
Where dreamers and beasts go to die
[Chorus]
A B
Here come the ravens
Bm G
To take what is mine
G
Their watching eyes
A Em
Waiting for the rest of me to die
A B
Here comes the reaper
Bm G
That hides from the light
G
Still hunting for
A Em
The heart that's still beating inside
A G A B
For these ravens to find
G A F#m A
(Here come the ravens)
G A B
G A F#m A
(Here come the ravens)
