[Verse]
D
Why did you call his name?
D
Why didn't you accept the shame?
D                                        Bb                   D
Why did you grab the sword you could not handle, you could not bear?
D
What did you try to achieve?
D
What did misguide your belief?
D            G        D       F       Bb     G C     A         D  Bb   G   F       D
What did you think to find in useless battles    but tears and death - but tearful death

[Chorus]
G            D
Here lies my dying son
Bb          F
Soon my own time will come
       C            G          D          F
In the halls of our fathers we shall meet again
   C              G
My world's now an empty shell
    D#           Bb
I'm burning in a living hell
       F                C            G          D   A         D
And my soul screams out vengeance, I will not return - not return

[Verse]
D           G        D
How did you make him gone?
D           G       D
How did you slay my son?
D            G         D       A           Bb       G      C   A       D
Now you will serve the king of pain in his dreadful realm, his fearful realm
D              G         D             
Where will you meet your death?
D            G         D
Where do you hide from my wrath?
D          G            D             A              Bb      G       C A      Bb      G     D
I will not rest til I'm free from the spell and your doom is sealed, a sinister fate - your sinister fate

[Chorus]
G            D
Here lies my dying son
Bb          F
Soon my own time will come
       C            G          D          F
In the halls of our fathers we shall meet again
   C              G
My world's now an empty shell
    D#           Bb
I'm burning in a living hell
       F                C            G          Bb
And my soul screams out vengeance, I will not return

[Outro]
F    C    G#m      D#    F#         F             C        D#
Here lies my dying son - I will not rest until my quest is done...
