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