    C        C/B         G      G/F#
The cloud of fate of the lithon sparks
     F                                    Em
That ended their future and gobbled their pasts
       C             C/B              G           G/F#
As the trolls o’the  mound with their teeth blood red
F                                         Em
Feed on their remnants and dream of their beds
         C          C/B      G          G/F#
They are burnished away on a chariot of fate
        F                                           Em
And the creatures of legend disappeared through the gate
          C           C/B           G         G/F#
While the Children of Rarn with the world all free
F                                  Em
Prayed in the east for what had to be

         C         C/B G                     G/F#       F                    Em
Then the priest of God changes the name from Beltane to Earth in a shower of rain
        C             C/B             G        G/F#
And the tribe knew to pray, then they kneeled again
            F                                        Em
They are no longer peace lings, they have a new life then

    C           C/B            G          G/F#
The last of the creatures, the animals of Rarn
    F                                         Em
Disappeared through the gate in the afternoon calm
       C       C/B  G         G/F#
Then a lone unicorn waited to feast
       F                                         Em
On the last day of Beltane with the ancient high priest
     C      C/B          G             G/F#
Then old Agadinmar sang again from the book
        F                       Em
And the egg of a lithon he also took
    C         C/B         G           G/F#
And placed it high in the heat of the sun
           F                                                Em
And as the beast and the creature departed the dinosaurs began, Oh
