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