Dm F Thin hung the web like a trap in a cage Gm A The fox lay asleep in his lair Fang's frantic paws told the tale of his sin Far off the chase shrieked revenge Chorus: Gm Dm Outcast he trespassed where no wolf may tread, Gm C The last sacred haunt of the dead. Gm Dm He learnt of a truth which only one wolf may know Gm C The sceptre and crown of the king Em Am Howling for blood One-eye leads through the pack, A Plunging through forests and snowstorm Steep rose the ridge, ghostly peaks climbed the sky Fang sped through jungles of ice Hard on his trail, One-eye drew from the pack - An old hero conquered by none Chorus: Steep, far too steep, grew the pathway ahead Descent was the only escape A wolf never flees in the face of his foe Fang knew the price he would pay - One-eye stood before him With the crown upon his head Sceptre raised to deal the deadly blow Fang, son of Great Fang, the traitor we seek The laws of the brethren say this: That only the king sees the crown of the gods And he, the usurper, must die Chorus: Snarling he tore at the throat of his foe But Fang fought the hero in vain Dawn saw the white mountain tinted with red - Never would the crown leave again One-eye hid the crown and with laurels on his head Returned amongst the tribe and dwelt in peace You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  Am  C  Dm  Em  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
