Intro/interlude: Am C G D X2

Verse:
Am                  C
Here I lie embraced by the blood and the mud.

G                        D
Just a splinter floating in this human flood.

Am                       C
Bought to my knees as I stumbled on blindly.

G                      D
And now I know that my life is behind me I cry

Chorus:

G         D       C
"carry me home on valkyries wings".

G               D    C
As you carry me home I hear they sing.

                  G          D         C
They're singing "son we have waited to carry you home.
G           D          C
Son we have waited, so come claim your throne"
