 Am    G  Am  F  Em    Am        


     Am                         G 
The high priest of money looks down on the river  
     F          G                     Em 
The dawn coming up on his kingdom of gold 
          Am                     G         Am 
When the rim of the sun sends an arrow of silver 
     F           Em                         Am 
He prays to the gods of the bought and the sold 

    Am                        G          Am 
He turns to his symbols, his ribbons of numbers  
      F           G                       Em 
They circle and spin on their mystical scroll  
    Am                         G           Am 
He looks for a sign while the city still slumbers 
         F               Em              Am   Asus2  Am 
And the ribbons and the river forever unroll 

                   Am   Asus2  G

Am 
               G           Am 
On the horizon   an enemy haven  
        F         G                      Em 
Sends traces of smoke high up into the sky  
   Am                        G         Am 
A pack of dog jackals and a rabble of ravens 
        F            Em                      Am 
Who?ll come for his fortress, his castle on high

    Am                    G             Am 
His axes and armour will conquer these devils 
     F         G                       Em  
The turbulent raiders will falter and fall  
       Am                      G                Am 
Their leaders be taken, their camps burned and levelled 
         F           Em                    Am 
They?ll hang in the wind from his citadel walls
