Have you seen the silver raven?
C
Em
She has wings and she can fly
Em
Far above the the darkened waters
C
Em
Far above the troubled sky
Em
Have you seen the changing rivers?
C
Em
Now they wait their turn to die
Em
But they turn their tide upon you
C
Em
When the sea begins to cry Have you seen the changing windows Of the sea beyond the stars? And the sky beyond the sunbeams And the world beyond your dreams Have you seen the old world dying Which was once what new worlds seem Have you seen the silver raven?

Em
She has wings that barely gleam They barely gleam, they barely glimmer As she circles past the sun And she tries to tell her sister That her trials have just begun |

A refuse from a silver phial
G
C
Put her faith into the moons and stars
G
Bm
She said she had a mind that slept inside tomorrow
D
Am
And time could only heal its scars She was fire on the borderline The lion in the fall of roles Said she saw the sword of sorrow sunken In the sand of searching souls
C
G
Sleeping in the master's room
Dm
F
C
Seeing through his eyes for gain
C

Keeping by his side not to be a victim
D

Falling in the darkened rain |
