Amon Amarth – Runes To My Memory Acoustic chords

INTRO:

Am, F, Em

VERSE:
Am                        GWe rode the rivers of the Eastern trail
 F         Deep in the land of the Rus'
Am             G      Following the wind in our sails
         FAnd the rhythm of the oars
    Am             GNo shelter in this hostile land
  F  Constantly on guard
Am        GReady to fight and defend
      FOurs ships 'til the bitter end

BRIDGE:
F                AmWe came under attack
  Dm                 EmI received a deadly wound
  F                     AmA spear was forced into my back
 Dm            Em    Still I fought on


     Am        (C) GWhen I am dead
        F           GLay me in a mound
  Am               (C) GRaise a stone for all to see
 F                     GRunes carved to my memory

Here I lie on the river bank
A long, long way from home
Life is pouring out of me
Soon I will be gone

I tilt my head to the side
And think of those back home
I see the river rushing by
Like blood runs from my wound

Here I lie on wet sand
I will not make it home
I clench my sword in my hand
Say farewell to those I love


CHORUS
     Am        (C) GWhen I am dead
        F           GLay me in a mound
 Am                 (C)  GPlace my weapons by my side
F                       GFor the journey to Hall up high

     Am         (C) GWhen I am dead
        F           GLay me in a mound
  Am               (C) GRaise a stone for all to see
 F                     GRunes carved to my memory
