D#m
Passing aeons
D#m G#m F# A#m
Everlasting fight against the Evil
D#m
Their army grows on and on
G#m F# A#m
With the darkening horizon
D#m F#
I'm not afraid, let them come
G#m F# A#m
I will never retreat
D#m F#
I will stand and hold my ground
G#m Cb A#m D#m
Protect the ancient tree
D#m
F# A#m D#m
The defense is doomed to fall

F# A#m D#m
With the world I used to know

Burning leaves
A#m
Turn to ash before my eyes
G#m Cb G#m
Crushed my dreams long gone
A#sus4 C#sus4 G#m
Bur-ning leaves
A#m
Dead branches reach to the sky
G#m Cb G#m
The flame within me is gone
[Verse]
G#m
On the light of the last dying star
C#m Cb D#m
Serpents crawl closer
G#m Cb
All five branches, cursed from the start
C#m E D#
And roots are torn to pieces
E G#m
Right before my dying breath
F# D#m
I lay my eyes to the sky
E G#m
As an eagle spreads its wings for the last time
F# D#m G#m
Leaving me, the oak, the grove, to die
[Chorus]
G#m
Burning leaves
A#m
Turn to ash before my eyes
G#m Cb G#m
Crushed my dreams long gone
A#sus4 C#sus4 G#m
Bur-ning leaves
A#m
Dead branches reach to the sky
G#m Cb G#m
The flame within me is gone

[Bridge]
(first 3 out of every 4 lines repeat the little tab above)
Liekö enää päällä maan
Ainuttakaan joka muistaa
Lehdon tuon kauniin kaukaisen
C# G#/C D#m
Jonne tie vie jokainen
Kun kuolema vie viimeisen
Keskellä liekkien ikuinen
Puu ja maailma ihmisten
C# G#/C D#m
Niin loppuu aikamme
