[Verse 1]
Em G/G
When we set out on this journey
Em G/G
There were no doubts in our minds
Em G/G
We set our eyes to the distance
Em G/G
We would find what we would find
Em G/G
We took courage from our numbers
Em G/G
What we sought we did not fear
G D
Sometimes we'd glimpse a shadow falling
A D A
The shadow would disappear
Em G/G
But our thoughts kept returning
Em G/G
To something the boy said as we turned to go
G D
He said you'll never see our faces again
A D A
You'll be food for a carrion crow
[Chorus]
G Cmaj7 G
Every step we took today
Cmaj7 G
Our thoughts would always stray
Cmaj7 Bb
From the wind on the moor so wild
C
To the words of the captain's child
Em G6 Gmaj7
Something the boy said
Em G6 Gmaj7
Something the boy said
Em G6 Gmaj7
Something the boy said

[Verse 2]
Em G/G
In the circles we made with our fires
Em G/G
We talked of the pale afternoon
Em G/G
The clouds were like dark riders
Em G/G
Flying on the face of the moon
Em G/G
We spoke our fears to the captain
Em G/G
And asked what his son could know
G D
For we would never have marched so far
A D A
To be food for a crow
[Pre-Chorus]
G Cmaj7 G
Every step we took today
Cmaj7 G
Our thoughts would always stray
Cmaj7 Bb
From the wind on the moor so wild
C
To the words of the captain's child
[Chorus]

Something the boy said

[Verse 3]
Em G/G
When I awoke this morning
Em G/G
The sun's eye was red as blood
Em G/G
The stench of burning corpses
Em G/G
Faces in the mud
Em G/G
Am I dead or am I living?
Em G/G
I'm too afraid to care, I'm too afraid to know
Em G/G
I'm too afraid to look behind me
Em G/G
At the feast of the crow
[Pre-Chorus]
G Cmaj7
We spoke our fears to the captain
G Cmaj7
And asked what his son could know
G Cmaj7
For we would never have marched so far
Bb C Em G/G Em
To be food food for a crow
G/G Em G/G Em
Food for a crow
G/G Em
Food for a crow
[Chorus]
