[Verse 1]

Em                     D          Em
Would you believe in a night like this?
  D          Em         D            Em
A night like this, when visions come true
Em                      D        Em
Would you believe in a tale like this
  D      Em     D                C
A lay of bliss, praising the old lore
G
Come to the blazing fire and

[Chorus]

Em     C      D    Em
See me in the shadows
Em     C      D    Em
See me in the shadows
Am           Em       G         D
Songs I will sing of runes and rings
F              C            D                Am
Just hand me my harp, this night turns into myth
Am            Em     G             D
Nothing seems real, you soon will feel
F                 C     D
The world we live in is another skalds
Em    C      D    A
Dream in the shadows
Em    C      D    A
Dream in the shadows

[Verse 2]

Em                      D        Em
Do you believe there is sense in it
      D        Em            D         Em
Is it truth or myth, they're one in my rhymes
Em               D         Em
Nobody knows the meaning behind
    D        Em          D      C          G    Am
The weaver's line, well, nobody else but the Norns can
D                                C
See through the blazing fires of time
        D
And all things will proceed
       C            D
As the child of the hallowed
C         (C/B)        G   (Em)
Will speak to you now

[Chorus]

Em     C      D    Em
See me in the shadows
Em     C      D    Em
See me in the shadows
Am           Em       G         D
Songs I will sing of tribes and kings
F           C        D               Am
The carrion bird and the hall of the slain
Am           Em       G         D
Nothing seems real, you soon will feel
F                 C     D
The world we live in is another skalds
Em    C      D    A
Dream in the shadows
Em    C      D    A
Dream in the shadows

[Verse 3]

       Em          C               G          F
Do not fear for my reason, there's nothing to hide
    Em          C            G          F
How bitter your treason, how bitter the lie

  C         G           D          A
Reeember the runes and remember the light
C          G          D          A
All I ever want is to be at your side
      C       G       Am       G
We'll gladden the raven, now I will
D                                  Am   G
Run through the blazing fires, that's my choice
D                              Em     C      G     F
'Cause things shall proceed as foreseen
