Olde Village Lanterne Tab

by Blackmores Night


                                  
Don't shed a tear for me,  I stand alone
                                         
This path of destiny,  Is all my own
                                      
Once in the hands of fate,  There is no choice
                                  
An echo on the wind,  You'll hear my voice…


                                                               
Some choose to fall behind,  Some choose to lead
                                      
Some choose a golden path,  Laden with greed
                                         
But it’s the noble heart,  That makes you strong
                                  
And in that heart,  I'm with you all along...


                                  
The old village lantern,  Is calling me onward
                 
Leading wherever I roam,  
                                   
The old village lantern,  A light in the dark,  
                     
Bringing me closer to home…


                                     
So when you think of me,  Do so with pride
                                 
Honour and bravery,  Ruled by my side
                           
And in your memory,  I will remain
                          
I will forever be within the flame………


                                         
Now at the journey's end,  We've travelled far
                                     
And all we have to show,  Are battle scars
                                      
But in the love we shared,  We will transcend
                              
And in that love, our journey never ends

                                   
Don't shed a tear for me,  I stand alone
                                       
This path of destiny,  Is all my own
                                      
Once in the hands of fate,  There is no choice
                                 
An echo on the wind,  You'll hear my voice…… 
                       
You’ll     hear     my      voice..........X2
