[Verse 1]
Fm D# Cm
I heard the cries of an orphan
C# D# F
Mourning the passing of time
Fm
I felt pain
D# Cm
Seep from the blood's absolution
C# D# F
Bled once by wonders divine
Fm
I am amazed
D# Cm
Left in the ruins of greatness
C# D# F
And I'll keep their nightmare alive
Fm
Fighting in vain
D# Cm
We are the fiends in the shadows
C# D# F
And I am the beast that survived
[Chorus]
D# F
Here come the ravens
Fm C#
To take what is mine
C#
Their watching eyes
D# A#m
Waiting for the rest of me to die
D# F
Here comes the reaper
Fm C#
That hides from the light
C#
Still hunting for
D# A#m
The heart that's still beating inside
D# C# D# F
For these ravens to find
C# D# Cm D#
(Here come the ravens)
C# D# F
C# D# Cm D#
(Here come the ravens)
[Verse 2]
Fm D# Cm
Tossed in a well long forgotten
C# D# F
The duty I had to fulfill
Fm
I can't remember
D# Cm
Why I became a lost dreamer
C# D# F
For vengeance, or for the next kill
Fm
Locked in a tower
D# Cm
I'll cut away what I've done
C# D# F
From the rest of the dreamers outside
Fm
Cursed in a portrait
D# Cm
Made of this hunter's regrets
C# D# F
Of the mother I drowned in the tide
[Chorus]
D# F
Here come the ravens
Fm C#
To take what is mine
C#
Their watching eyes
D# A#m
Waiting for the rest of me to die
D# F
Here comes the reaper

That hides from the light

(Here come the ravens)
[Verse 3]
Fm D#
Weep for the master that made me
Cm C# D#
And the raven that heard my last breath
Fm F
Long have the hunters pursued me
D# C# D#
And tonight I'm your angel of death
F C#
Fire, blood, and desire
D#
Lost in the mire
C# D#
In desolation
F C#
Lies, all of us die
D#
And even now, I
C# D#
Fm left to the ravens
[Alt. Chorus]
D# F
Here come the ravens
Fm C#
To bury my pride
C#
They're hunting me
D# A#m
And trails of my sorrow behind
D# F
Here comes the new blood
Fm C#
Where secrets should lie
C#
To find rest
D# A#m
Where dreamers and beasts go to die
[Chorus]
D# F
Here come the ravens
Fm C#
To take what is mine
C#
Their watching eyes
D# A#m
Waiting for the rest of me to die
D# F
Here comes the reaper
Fm C#
That hides from the light
C#
Still hunting for
D# A#m
The heart that's still beating inside
D# C# D# F
For these ravens to find
C# D# Cm D#
(Here come the ravens)
C# D# F
C# D# Cm D#
(Here come the ravens)
