The Kingdom

Intro: | Em   | G    | D    | D    | 



[Verso 1]

  Em              G 
Behold my son, my father said 
     D                   Em 
The strength of Dwarven stone 
Em              G 
When I pass, it shall endure 
    D               Em 
The kingdom and the throne 
 Em                 D/A 
Stone on stone with Dwarven hands 
  Bm                D 
A hall for peace to reign 
Em                   G 
Where beat hearts of loyalty 
    D               Em 
The kingdom shall remain 



[Refrão]

             G     D/F#  Bm          C 
And when the halls are   filled with treasure 
             Em    D/F#  G     D 
And when we strive for   one endeavor 
              Em   D/F#  G 
And when the stone of    white 
           Am   G    Em 
Crowns the hall with light 
               Em  D/F#  G      D    Bm 
Then shall the kingdom  stand forever 
  Em 
Forever 



[Verso 2]

Em               G 
Come, said he, I show you well 
    D             Em 
The craft of ages past 
Em             G 
Iron heart and diamond head 
     D               Em 
Will make the hammer last 
Em               D/A 
But the heart of adamant 
   Bm             D 
Is needed for the fight 
Em             G 
Arm of oak and heavy stroke 
      D               Em 
Shall be the foeman′s plight 


Chorus 
             G    D/F#  Bm      C 
And when you live to    see the treasure 
             Em    D/F#  G     D 
And when we strive for   one endeavor 
             Em    D/F#  G 
And when the crown of    gold 
           Am  G  Em 
Finds the spirit  bold 
               Em  D/F#  G      D    Bm 
Then shall the kingdom  stand forever 
  Em 
Forever 


verse 3 
Em             G 
Dreaded day of reckoning 
    D                 Em 
Has called us on this day 
Em         G 
Evil magic beckoning 
  D                 Em 
A force from dark decay 
Em             D/A 
Goblins of the darkest realm 
    Bm           D 
Our kingdom to dismay 
Em              G 
Draw your axes, venture forth 
      D            Em 
Bring valor to the fray! 



[Refrão]

               G   D/F#  Bm       C 
And when they come to    take our treasure 
               Em    D/F#  G     D 
Then shall we strive with  one endeavor 
              Em    D/F#  G 
And when the stones flow  red 
           Am  G  Em 
With their wicked dead 
               Em  D/F#  G      D    Bm 
Then shall the kingdom  stand forever 
  Em 
Forever 
             G      D/F#  Bm          C 
Then let our hearts be    filled with treasure 
            Em    D/F#  G     D 
And let us strive with  one endeavor 
           Em   D/F#  G 
And let us wash the  stone 
       Am   G   Em 
And restore the throne 
               Em  D/F#  G      D    Bm 
Then shall the kingdom  stand forever 
  Em 
Forever

[Verso 4]

F#m            A 
Fallen father, know thee well 
     E        F#m 
Your memory remains 
F#m                  A 
Peace fulfilled from blood then spilled 
    E                F#m 
And now your son who reigns 
 F#m            E/B 
Standing now in readiness 
C#m              E 
For the hammer's falling 
F#m              A 
Building now in steadiness 
    E              F#m 
The kingdom now is calling 



[Refrão]

             A    E/G# C#m  D 
And when our name becomes a treasure 
            F#m   E/G#  A     E 
And we have lived for   one endeavor 
              F#m   E/G#  A 
And when the stones grow  cold 
         Bm   A  F#m 
With our dead of old 
                F#m E/G#  A      E    C#m 
Still shall our kingdom  stand forever 
  F#m 
Forever
