Led Zeppelin - The Battle of Evermore: chords

    Am            G Am           C     Am              G   Am  C
The Queen of Light  took her bow, and then she turned to go
     Am             G  Am              C    Am                 G  Am C
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom, and walked the night alone
D
(Oh, dance in the dark of night,
sing to the morning light.)
    Am              G  Am           C    Am             G  Am C
The Dark Lord rides in force tonight and time will tell us all.
 D
(Oh, throw down your plow and hoe,
rest not to lock your homes)
Am          G   Am            C       Am         G      Am  C
Side by side we wait the might of the darkest of them all.

Chorus:
Am7         D
I hear the horses thunder,
 Am7                  D
down in the valley below
G7                  C
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon,
 G7                       C
waiting for the eastern glow

The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness
The ground is rich from tender care
Repay, do not forget, no, no
Dance in the dark of night
Sing to the morning light
The apples turn to brown and black
The tyrant's face is red
Oh, war is the common cry
Pick up your swords and fly
The sky is filled with good and bad
Mortals never know, oh

Chorus:
Oh, well, the night is long
the beads of time pass slow
Tired eyes on the sunrise
Waiting for the eastern glow

The pain of war cannot exceed
The woe of aftermath
The drums will shake the castle wall
The ring wraiths ride in black, ride on
Sing as you raise your bow (Ride on)
Shoot straighter than before
No comfort has the fire at night
That lights the face so cold
Oh dance in the dark of night
Sing to the morning light
The magic runes are writ in gold
To bring the balance back
Bring it back

At last the sun is shining
The clouds of blue roll by
With flames from the dragon of darkness
The sunlight blinds his eyes!
Ahhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhh

Am      G       Am     C       Am
Back, bring it back, bring it back,
  G       Am     C
bring it back, bring it
 Am     G       Am     C       Am
Back, bring it back, bring it back,
  G       Am C
bring it back,
D
Oh now, oh now, oh now oh,
oh now, oh now, oh now oh, bring it

Back, bring it back, bring it back,
bring it back,
Oh now, oh now, oh now oh,
oh now, oh now, oh now oh, bring it

Bring it, bring it, bring it,
bring it, bring it
Bring it, bring it, bring it,
bring it, bring it, bring it
