Am             C         Dm        F      Am  C  F  Em
Cries from the grave resound in my ears
Am             C        Dm       F      Am  C  F  Em
They hail from beyond my darkest fears
Am           C        Dm           F      Am  C  F  Em
Faces of the past are etched in my brain
Am          C          Dm       F      Am  C  F  Em
The women I raped, the men I've slain

Dm            F        G            Bb
Shades of the dead are sliding on the wall
C                   G
Demons dance in the castle hall
