[Verse]
Am
Proud and ancient land
G                    Am
Noble souls, a final stand
                F        G   Em
Blood on fallen leaves

Am
Left alone and lost
G                       Am
Darkest lines that I must cross
                 F         G   Em
Lords unite with thieves

[Pre-chorus]
Am
Fear in the blade

The spirits of the fallen fade
F
Soil and degrade
   Em
My legacy and name

Am
Bending the code

Defile the duty long bestowed
E
Burdened by the shame

[Chorus]
           Am     F
When honor dies
                 C             Em
There will be no pride in victory
           Am     F
When honor dies
            C            Em
I will be denied my history

Am        F
I give my everything
C          Em
Return the reckoning
Am           B7             E
Glare of the Ghost fills my eyes

When honor dies

[Verse]
Am
Balance for the mind
G                            Am
Blossoms paint the paths and shrines
             F     G   Em
Nature's poetry

[Pre-chorus]
Am
Strike from the shade

Tradition of the kin betrayed
F
Soil and degrade
   Em
My lineage and claim

Am
Exile and pain

A poison in the dying vein
E
Burdened by the shame

[Chorus]
           Am     F
When honor dies
                 C             Em
There will be no pride in victory
           Am     F
When honor dies
            C            Em
I will be denied my history

Am        F
I give my everything
C          Em
Return the reckoning
Am           B7             E
Glare of the Ghost fills my eyes

When honor dies

[Bridge]
F                        G
Ghost of the fallen, the wind is ever guiding
Am                     G
Vengeance is calling a specter in the night
F                    G
Ghost of the fallen, golden wings are gliding
Am          G            C           Em      Am
Feeding the soil, so the world can return to life

F                        G
Ghost of the fallen, the wind is ever guiding
Am                     G
Vengeance is calling a specter in the night
F                    G
Ghost of the fallen, golden wings are gliding
Am          G            C           Em      Am
Feeding the soil, so the world can return to life

My soul

Return the reckoning

Glare of the Ghost fills my eyes
