_ _ [Dm] Sin hung the web like a trap in a cage, The [Gm] fox lay asleep [A] in his lair. _
_ [Dm] Fangs frantic, foes told the [C] tale of his sin, _ [Gm] Far off the chase, wreaked [A] [Dm] revenge. _
[Gm] _ Outcast he trespassed [Dm] where no wolf may tread, [Gm]
The lost sacred haunt [C] of the dead.
[Gm] He learnt of a truth which [Dm] only one wolf may know,
[Gm] The scepter and crown [C] of a king.
_ _ [Em] Howling for blood, one [Am] eye leads on the pack, Plunging [A] through forest and _ snowstorm.

_ _ [A] _ _ [Em] _ _ [Dm] Steep rose the ridge, ghostly peaks climbed the sky,
[Gm] Fangs fed through jungles [A] of ice.
_ _ [Dm] Hard on his trail, one eye drew [F] from the pack, [Gm] An old hero conquered [A] by [Dm] none.
_ [Gm] Steep, far too steep [Dm] grew the pathway ahead, [Gm] Descent was the only [C] escape.
_ [Gm] A wolf never [Dm] flees in the face of its foe, [Gm] Fang knew the price [C] he would pay.
_ [Em] One eye stood before him with the [Am] crown upon his head,
Scepter [A] raised a deal of deadly blood. _ _

Like son of great fine, the [F] traitor we seek, [E] The [Gm] laws of the brethren [Dm] say this,
[A] _
[Dm] That only the king sees the crown [F] of the gods, [Gm] And he, the usurper, [Dm] must die.
_ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] Snarling, he tore at [Dm] the throat of his [Gm] foe, But fang fought the hero [C] in vain.
_ [Gm] Dawn saw the white [Dm] mountain dimmed and withered, [Gm] Never would the crown [C] leave again.
_ _ [Em] One eye hid the crown and [Am] with laurels on his head,
Returned amongst a [A] tribe of dwelting beasts.
