========================
from the album "Silent Waters"
(!) Great new song from Finnish no. 1 metal band!
(!)
(!) Chords & riff's should be quite right, but I'm not quite sure
(!) about the very end of *Riff 2. Enjoy!

INTRO (with piano):
| | | | (x2)
VERSE 1
A day's light told me, of my son's fate
the sun showed the way, grim and severe
pulled under the raging, waters my child
sank in the drowning, currents my son,
BRIDGE, w/ *Riff 1
|
My Son.....
VERSE 2
My strength is not enough, my powers failed me
I need the heavens help, I ask for thunder's force
I plead for you oh lightning, forge an iron tool
a magic rake of dragging, a river for my son
BRIDGE, w/ *Riff 1
My Son...
CHORUS
God of fire bring your light
forger of sun, help me now
Guardian of the shore will sleep,
In your warmth..
Lull the folk of cold water,
banish the serpents of the dark.
To the river, let me go
and fetch my son away
INTRO, w/ *Riff 2
| | | | (x2)
VERSE III
A rake made of iron, from the Gods of skies
the spirit of bright days, sent me the sun
Cold troops of Tuoni, cannot stand in my way
untouched I shall walk by the river of the night
BRIDGE, w/ "solo riff"
(x2)
CHORUS
God of fire bring your light
forger of sun, help me now
Guardian of the shore will sleep,
In your warmth..
Lull the folk of cold water,
banish the serpents of the dark.
To the river, let me go
and fetch my son away
OUTRO (=Intro with piano riff):
| | | | (x2)
My child, my son ...
