This is how I play Nightfall.
[Intro]
Am F Am Em

[Verse]
Am F
No sign of life did flicker
Am Em
In floods of tears she cried
F E
"All hope's lost it can't be undone
F E
They're wasted and gone"
Am
"Save me your speeches
F Am
I know (They blinded us all)
What you want
G
You will take it away from me
Am F
Take it and I know for sure
Am
The light she once brought in
G Am
Is gone forevermore"
Am F
Like sorrowful seagulls they sang
Am
"(We're) lost in the deep shades
G
The misty cloud brought
(A wailing when beauty was gone
Come take a look at the sky)
Am F
Monstrous it covered the shore
Am G
Fearful into the unknown"
Bm
Quietly it crept in new horror
D A
Insanity reigned
Bm
It spilled the first blood
D A
When the old king was slain
Bm G
Nightfall
D Em F#
Quietly it crept in and changed us all
Bm G
Nightfall
D Em F#
Quietly it crept in and changed us all
Bm G
Nightfall
D G D A Bm
Immortal land lies down in agony
Bm
"How long shall we
D A
Mourn in the dark
Bm D
the bliss and the beauty
A
Will not return
Bm D A
Say farewell to sadness and grief
Bm D A
Though long and hard the road may be"
C#
But even in silence I heard the words |Well, this is how I play it.
"An oath we shall swear
By the name of the one
A
'til the world's end
(It can't be broken
Just wondering how
I can still hear these voices inside)
The doom of the Noldor drew near"
B |This part is tricky as hell. This
The words of a banished king |is how I play it though. Far from
|perfect. Anyone got better idea?
A C# B
"I swear revenge"
A
Filled with anger aflamed our hearts
C# B
Full of hate full of pride
C# A
We screamed for revenge
[Chorus]
Bm
"Vala he is that's what you said
D A
Then your oath's been sworn in vain
(freely you came and
You freely shall depart)
Bm
Never trust the northern winds
D A
Never turn your back on friends"
Bm D
"Oh I'm heir of the high lord!"
Bm
"You better don't trust him"
D A
The enemy of mine
F# Bm
Isn't he of your kind and
D A Em Bm A G A
Finally you may follow me
Bm D A G A
Farewell he said
[Chorus]
Bm G
Back to where it all began
Bm F#7
Back to where it all began
[Outro]
