Am
The wise woman said:
Em
"Once you're hardened in battle
Am
There's no coming back.
C G
Fight or Fall!"
Am
And before the attack
Em
Feel your blood start to boil
Am
in your veins as you charge
C G
Hundreds fallen
PreChorus
F
As the fire inside
G
Is ignited by bloodshed
F
In berserkers from north
G
Could it be as was said
G
When the serpent be woken
G
Fenrir howls
Am C G
Swedish Pagans, marching ashore
F C G
Forged in Valhalla by the hammer of Thor
Am C G
Out from Asgaard, a viking ship sails
F C Am
Never to turn back again!
V2
Where our brothers have fought
Is where we will be proven
On ground stained by blood
Standing tall!
And we know, if we fall
Our comrades awaits in Valhall
Odin's calling!
PC
As the fire inside
Is ignited by bloodshed
In berserkers from north
Could it be as was said
When the serpent be woken
Fenrir howls
Chorus
Swedish Pagans, marching ashore
Forged in Valhalla by the hammer of Thor
Out from Asgaard, a viking ship sails
Never to turn back again!
Bridge
C G
First to the battle
D Am
First to the feast
C G
Destiny waiting,
D Am
No retreat,
Retreat!
(Solo part)
Chorus
Swedish Pagans, marching ashore
Forged in Valhalla by the hammer of Thor
Out from Asgaard, a viking ship sails
Never to turn back again!
