Dm                        Gm
I heard a whisper on my shoulder
D#                           Dm
Pretending life is worth the fight
Dm                           Gm
O can you hear the song of thunder
                                Dm
When fear strangles a soldier's pride
Am                        A#
And on the surface of the waters
               A                          Dm
Will dance reflections of the fire in the night

Dm                       Gm
I remember cheering from towers
D#                       Dm
A face is smiling in the light
Dm                          Gm
I remember the bells, the flowers
       D#                    D
Those days are dying in the dark

G                         D#
Boy I was shaped for the fury
                G
Now I pay the price
                     D#
Of the human race's vice
G
And I was promised
     D#                    G
The glorious ending of a knight
D#
But the crown is out of sight

I'm slowly drifting into slumber
'Cause I have lost the force to fight
It's like a cold hand on my shoulder
I'll see you on the other side
And in the arms of endless anger
Will end the story of a soldier in the dark
