(Chorus twice)
My song of the end , my song of the end I've seen it


(Intro)
All


F#m                        E
Listen crowd I'll tell you everything
  F#m                  C#m        F#m
Though I have to say I don't know much
F#m                              E
Talking 'bout a past and future secret
F#m                      C#m    F#m
Most called Him once and future King
F#m                            E
Far back in the past I saw His ending
F#m                       C#m     F#m
Long before he started I knew His name
F#m                                 E
He's the one who took the sword out of the stone
F#m          C#m              D   Bm E
It's how that ancient tale begun      (I hear it in the cold winds)


(Chorus four times)
My song of the end , my song of the end ,
My song of the end (I had seen it in my dreams)
My song of the end I can't stop the darkening clouds

(Rh.Fig.1)
I feel cold when I cry out for the bark
 F#m              E   F#m   C#m    F#m
(take Him back to Avalon)


(Same as previous)
Dwell on for a new age so long sleep well my friend
(take Him back to Avalon)


(Rh.Fig.1)                                (Chorus seven times)
I will wait and guard the future King's crown
My song of the end , my song of the end
My song of the end , my song of the end (It was nice but now it's gone)
My song of the end (It was fixed the whole time)
                             (Rh.Fig.3)
My song of the end , I saw it all
