I know, I Know - the Queen of Light took her bow (as in bowing to the audience - I rhymed it with bow and arrow - derr!

BATTLE OF EVERMORE INTRO Am 8bars

VERSE ONE
Am C Am C Am C Am C
Queen of Light took her bow then she turned to go,
Am G Am C




The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom Am G Am C
And walked the night alone.

D Dsus4/D alternate
Oh, dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morn-ing light.
Am C Am C Am C Am C




The dark Lord rides in force tonight And time will tell us all


D Dsus4/D alternate
Oh, throw down your plow and hoe Rest not to lock your homes.,
Am C Am C Am C Am C
Side by side we wait the might Of the darkest of them all.




INSTRUMENTAL 8 BARS- Am G Am C


BRIDGE
G D Am D
I hear the horses' thunder Down in the valley below,
G7 C G7 C
waiting for the angels of Avalon Waiting for the eastern glow,
.


VERSE 2
Am C Am C Am C Am C
The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness
Am G Am C




The ground is rich from tender care,
Am G Am C
Repay, do not forget, no, no.


D Dsus4/D alternate
Oh, dance in the dark of night Sing to the morn-ing light, Am C Am C Am C Am C
The apples turn to brown and black The tyrant's face is red.,
D Dsus4/D alternate




Oh war is the common cry pick up your swords & fly. Am C Am C Am G Am
The sky is filled with good and bad That mortals never know

INSTRUMENTAL 8 BARS- Am G Am C .


BRIDGE
G D Am D
Oh well the night is long the beads of time pass slow G7 C G7 C
The Tired eyes on the sunrise waiting for the eastern glow


VERSE 3
Am C Am C Am C Am C
The pain of war cannot exceed The woe of aftermath,
Am G Am C




The drums will shake the castle wall, Am G Am C
The ringwraiths ride in black, Ride on.

D Dsus4/D alternate
Oh sing as you raise your bow Shoot straighter than before Am C Am C Am C Am C




No comfort has the fire at night That lights the face so cold.
D Dsus4/D alternate
Oh dance in the dark of night, Sing to the mornin' light Am C Am C




The magic runes are writ in gold Am C Am C




To bring the balance back. Bring it back

INSTRUMENTAL 8 BARS- Am G Am C


BRIDGE
Am D Am D




At last the sun is shining, The clouds of blue roll by, G7 C
With flames from the dragon of darkness G7 C
The sunlight blinds his eyes.


Am C Am C
Back, bring it back, bring it back
Bring it back
Oh no, oh no, oh no, rpt and alternate
