Manowar is an American heavy metal band from Auburn, New York. Formed in 1980, the group is known for lyrics based on fantasy (particularly sword and sorcery) and mythology (particularly Norse mythology and Greco-Roman mythology).
In 1984 the band was included in the Guinness Book of World Records for delivering the loudest performance, a record which they have since broken on 2 occasions. They also hold the world record for the longest heavy metal concert after playing for 5 hours and 1 minute in Bulgaria (at Kavarna Rock Fest) in 2008.

Verse:
E5 Here our soldiers stand from all around the world C5 Waiting in a line to hear the battle cry E5 All are gathered here victory is near C5 The sound will fill the hall bringing power to us all E5 We alone are fighting for metal that is true C5 We own the right to live the fight we're here for all of you E5 Now swear the blood upon your steel will never dry C5 Stand and fight together beneath the metal sky
Refrain: (all chords at 5th. string) E5 Brothers Everywhere G5D5 Raise you hands into the air C5 We're warriors G5F#5E5 Warriors of The World E5 Like thunder from the sky G5D5 Sworn to fight and die C5 We're warriors G5F#5E5 Warriors of The World
Verse 2:
E5 Many stand against us but they will never win C5 We said we would return and here we are again E5 To bring them all destruction suffering and pain C5 We are the hammer of the Gods we are thunder wind and rain E5 There they wait in fear with swords in feeble hands C5 With dreams to be a King first one should be a man E5 I call them out and charge them all with a life that is a lie C5 And in their final hour they shell confess before they die
- Repeat Refrain.
- Interlude with adlib synths
If i should fall in battle my brothers who fight by my side Gather my horse and waepons tell my family how i died Until then i will be strong I will fight for all that is real All who stand in my way will die by steel
