Sheer Covers VNV Nation-Kingdom<\/A><\/p>\nThis is a cover, so presumably the original is copyright VNV Nation. Here’s the lyrics (and chord chart) anyway:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\nVerse 1:
\n========
\n G#m
\nOur domain, this kingdom come,
\nnow godless lands whose ways are lost
\nWithout the strength to carry on.
\nAll values lost, all virtue none.<\/p>\n
Part II:
\n========
\n G#m D#m
\nDid you think that you’d be saved
\n C#
\nby burning flags to cleanse yourselves of shame?
\n G#m C# D#m
\nOr are you afraid, as you stare back at your face?
\n G#m F# C# D#m
\nOr are you ashamed, are you afraid, by destroying what the gods once gave?<\/p>\n
G# F# E C#<\/p>\n
G#m
\n————- Do you think that you’ll be saved?<\/p>\n
B F#
\nAnd I believe that we’ll conceive
\n C#m G#m
\nto make in hell for us a heaven.
\n B F#
\nA brave new world, a promised land.
\n C#m G#m
\nA fortitude of hearts and minds.
\n E B
\nUntil I see this kingdom’s mine
\n F# C#m
\nI’ll turn the darkness into light.
\n E B
\nI’ll guide the blind. My will be done
\n F# C#m G#m
\nuntil the day I say our kingdom has been won.
\nG#m
\n No more the servants of the weak
\ndevoid of thought or light to seek.
\nI’ll leave no walls, no stone unturned.
\nEvery tower must be razed …<\/p>\n
Part III:
\n========
\n D#m
\n … to the dust from which it came.
\n C#
\nNone will be spared, no remnant saved.
\n G#m F# C# D#min
\nAnd are you ashamed, are you afraid of the gods and idols that you have made?
\nG#m F# C# D#min
\n Do you think you’ll be saved by the gods and idols that you have made?<\/p>\n
G#m F#m E C#
\n ———————- None will be saved.
\nG#m
\n None will be saved. <\/p>\n
(Chorus)
\n(Solo)
\n(Chorus)<\/p>\n
