D
In the middle of the night
G
When the angels scream
Bm
I don't wanna live a life
     A
I believe
Time to do or die

D                G
I will never forget the moment, the moment
Bm               A
I will never forget the moment

Chorus:
                   D   G   Bm
And the story goes on! On! On!
A                     D
That's how the story goes
G                     Bm  A
That's how the story goes

It's a dark embrace
In the beginning was a light of a dawning age
Time to be alive

I will never forget the moment, the moment
I will never forget this night we sing, we sing

Chorus:
Oh oh oh
That's how the story goes

 G               A
Fate is coming that I know.

Time is running, got to go.

Hear me now under the banner of heaven
     G       A  D
We dream of love

Do or die and the story goes (oh oh oh)
And the story goes, oh oh oh

Chorus:
(This is the story)
Fate is coming that I know
(This is the story)
Time is running got to go
(This is the story)
Fate is coming that I know
(This is the story)
Let it go

Hear me now
Under the banner of heaven
We dream out loud
Dream out loud

(Time to do or die)
Fate is coming, that I know
(Time to do or die)
Time is running out
(Time to do or die)
Fate is coming, that I know
(Time to do or die)
Let it go
