[Abm] [Ebm] [Ab] [E] [Bbm]
[Bm] [A] [Abm]
[Eb] [E] [Eb] [Ab]
A carved oak table [Dbm] tells a tale [Bbm] of times when kings and queens
[Cm] sent wine from [Fm] Goblet's [Ab] goal, and the brave would lead [Ebm] their
ladies [Dbm] from out [Gb] the [B]
room [Db] to [Eb] Ardlespool.
[Ab]
A time of valor [Dbm] and legends born, [Bbm]
a time when honor meant [Cm] much more to a [Fm] man than [Ab] life,
and the days you [Eb] only strived to tell [B] right [Bb] from [B] wrong [Gb] [Abm] through long and [Eb] short.
[Cm]
[Eb] Why, [Cm] why, can [G] we never be [Bb] sure, do we die, or have killed for an [F] answer?
[Cm] Why, [Eb] [Cm] why, [G] do we summon each [Bb] race to believe that no race has [F] been grander [Bb]
through [Gm] time?
[D] Though our nose may change each face [C] with time, [Gb] still [G] our [D] skin [E] will be
[Abm]
[E] [D] [Gbm] [B]
[Bm] [Gb] [Bbm] [Ebm]
[Bbm]
[Ebm] [E] [Bb]
[Ab] a dusty table,
[Bb]
and musty smells, [Bbm] tarnished silver lies [Ab]
discarded upon the floor.
Only feeble light [Ebm]
descends through [Dbm] a film [Gb] of [B] [Gb] grey, [Db] and scarves [Eb] the pains
[Ab] Gone the carving, [Bb] and those who left their mark, [Bbm] gone the kings and queens,
[Ab] now only the right's hold sway, and the weak must [Ebm] die according to [Dbm] [Gb] nature's [B] law.
[Db] As old [Eb] as they.
[Cm] [Eb] Why, [Cm] why, [G] can we never be sure, do [Bb] we die, or have killed for an [F] answer?
[Cm] Why, [Eb] [Cm] why, do [G] we summon each race to [Bb] believe that no race has been [F]
grander?
[Bb]
Because [Gm] through time [D] and space,
though our nose may change each face [C] with time, [Gb] still [G] our [D] skin [E] will be [Abm] a dusty table.
