Gm                         Cm
A flame divine, Gods placed  in men's care
         F                        Gm
To battle the frost, to banish despair
                                    Cm
The days are grim and hearts turn cold
                           F
And even an act of kindness can lead to death and sorrow

[Verse 1]

    Gm
The signs are clear, the dawn has come
    Bb            Dm         Gm
The summer of our time shall soon be gone
    Gm
The cold days are closing in
    Bb     Dm        Gm
The bitter chill, it seeps within


[Verse 2]

    Gm
The trees stand bare, their leaves long gone
    Bb            Dm         Gm
The earth is frozen, nothing moves on
    Gm
The sun is weak, its light so faint
       Bb       Dm       Gm
As thе world succumbs to winter's restraint

Come and rest for awhile

    Gm                  Cm Bb      F     Gm
The long cold winter of sorrow and strife
                     Cm     Gm        Dm   Gm
Heal your tired soul by the embracing fire
                          Cm      Bb          F
We'll sing to remember and  we'll drink to forget
    Cm                 Gm                 Bb     F       Dm
The love, the loss and those who sailed into the last sunset

[Verse 3]

   Gm                   Bb      Gm
In the frozen wasteland,  he'll forge his fate
  Gm                      Bb     Gm
A wanderer no more, he'll conquer  with hate
                                    Bb      Gm
Through the fires of vengeance, his path is now clear
                                   Bb   Gm
Into the heart of the storm, he'll head without fear

Cm           Eb         Gm                Cm
Hear how the north wind howls, a mournful cry
Cm          Eb         Gm                 Cm
See how the snow falls from the darkening sky

Before my eyes,     the flames did rise

In crackling hearth, they mesmerize
Ab              Eb         Cm         Bb   Eb
They licked the skies with tongues of gold
  F        Dm            D
A testament  to the power they hold
