Everything here is solely ear-transcribed.
This is the first Song which chords I post on this website and my first post at
all, so don't be mean if you find a blemish. :-) But you can feel free too pass
some constructive criticism.
Good Luck with this Amazing Song of an amazing Band!

Fire falling from the sky

And the only one will come

It has been foretold

And the madness in their eyes
Am/E
Said his angel will arise
C#m G#m B
That's what they know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god

We have done no wrong
Am/E
So we go where we belong
E
To the neverending dream
Am/E
But for those who lived in sin"
C#m G#m B C#m
They claim to know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god"

Hey Angel, can you tell me
Will you lead us to the place
Full of heat, in the fire
F#
For we only brought disgrace
[Lugaid:]
G#m B
He is not the one. If they only knew
[Bishop:]

Hey Angel, will you take us
To the judgement of his rage

[Lugaid:]

Redeemer, devastion
Hope it only has been ment
For the sin of the dreamer

who broke the low you'd sent
[Lugaid:]
G#m B
He is not the one. If they only knew
[Jakob:]
G#m
Hey, don't know but i wondered:
When we lost the seal again
Maybe stoned by the incense
F#
Do we rise or just descent
[Lugaid:]
G#m
He is not the one. If they only knew
[Jakob:]

[Gabriel:]
E A/E B/E E
Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
B/D# C#m G#m A B
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
E A/E B/E E
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
B/D# C#m G#m A B F#m
who make me plunge into philosophy - to feel my mind again...
No one left to hold me tight - on the
E/G# Am G/B C
`real`other side but her in chains
E A/E
I had been alone till the madman come along
B/E E
With the knowledge and silver long beard
B/D# C#m G#m A B
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
E A/E
Helping me to find - oh - the mind and the soul
B/E E B/D#
They've been trying to hide away...
C#m G#m A
And he promised we'd help Anna if I'd help him to
B A B
go all the way
[Lugaid:]
Esus4 E Esus4 E A C#m B A B
Go all the way into the world of minds
Esus4 E Esus4 E A C#m B
Op - en the gate and do not close behind
A B
Prevent them from hiding the light away
E/G# A
Prevent them from tellin' us tales
F#m
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
B
million empty brains...

[Gabriel:]
G#m
I could bring you what you told me
E B C# D#m
The seal they need to close the gate forever
G#m
But still I haven't found a meaning
E B Bb
Anna will we ever be together
[Regrin:]
F# C#/F D#m
You've been fighting for your soul
Bbm B
And sometimes it takes a toll
F# G#m
Hope one day you'll understand
C# F#
What it means to hold in hands
C#/F D#m
What they call a fantasy
Bbm B
It is nothing but a key
F# G#m
To the world that now you're in
C# F#
That they call a wicked dream
[Elderane:]
F# C#/F D#m
When you're walking on your own
