Deep Purple - Birds Of Prey: chords

G
Alarm bells ringing clear
           D#              C
Break the calm before the fall
Bad news travels at the speed of flight
Good news not at all
And here we are again
Playing endless games of war

Chorus:
G
Birds of prey

Without a word of warning
We dive in to attack
Vengeful and self-righteous
We turn the blue sky black
And a wretched few escape
They'll be forever looking back

Chorus:
At our sacrifice

G
And the golden sun is rising
        F  C                G
At the dawn of a beautiful day

        A
In the name of all that's holy
        F
In the name of history
        D
In the face of life and nature
         A#
We are driven by belief
     E
Our faith a crumbling fortress
      C
Once perfect and sublime
      G#
Will fail again and rise again
   E
Until the death
                    A
Until the death of time
