1. Long ago in days untold, ruled by lords of greed,
D - C
maidens
fair, with gold they dared to bare their wombs that bleed.

Kings and queens and guillotines
taking lives denied,

when
bishops took the ride only to deceive.

somehow
I know now truths I must be sure.

Tossin'
turnin', nightmares brunin',
dreams of swords in hand,

sailing
ships, the Viking spits,
B7
the
blood of father's land, only to deceive.
