The Scarecrow

 
              Bm   G  A Em F#m G 
 
 
 
Bm               
I'm just a loser in the game of love 
G 
I'm just a stray boy in the shade 
A 
And how I wish to know what love is like 
Em                  F#m           G 
To find someone to contemplate 
 
 
Bm  
There's a voice and a million answers 
 
To the questions I don't ask 
G 
A demon ? I've got to contain 
A  
When I'm walking through the fen 
 
Gonna deep into the black 
Em                    F#m        G 
There are whispers that I can't restrain 
 
 
           D 
Don't give in 
 
 
 
{Chorus:} 
 
D   D/C#   Bm     Bm  D   A               
Rise to fame ? time will come 
D   D/C#    Bm    Bm   D   A 
Make your claim ? time has come 
D           D/C#        Bm 
For the crow who fly away 
 
Bm  G  A  -  Em  F#m  G 
 
 
{Jorn Lande:} 
Bm 
So you're an angel meant to walk down here 
G 
And you believe it's all divine 
A 
And you don't play by all those temporal rules 
Em           F#m            G 
Watch the world begin to die 
 
 
 
 
        Bm 
Alright ? when the lamb's been torn to pieces, 
 
I've been crashing from the sky 
G                 A 
Fallen to care for the pray, they put a spoke right in your wheel 
                Em        F#m      G 
I'm the one to dare the weak, to push you all over the pain 
     D 
You give in ? oh 
 
 
 
{Chorus} 
 
{solo: Sascha Paeth} 
 
D Bm -  G  A

{Tobias Sammet:} 
Bm                                           D Bm D Bm D Bm| D  Em Bm 
I close my eyes and I see what's coming my way 
Bm                             D Bm D Bm | D Em G 
He's got treasure in his eyes that he's gonna turn to clay 
 
 
 
{Jorn Lande:} 
G                      G 
Hm, I'm a stranger, I'm a changer and I'm danger... 
 
Maybe 
 
 
 
{Tobias Sammet:} 
Bm         D     D/C#           A 
Fallen angel - waiting for the prey 
Bm         D     D/C#           A 
The devil has come to take a maimed away 
Bm         D     D/C#           A 
Penetration of the twisted mind 
Bm         D     D/C#           A 
The evil is out for the weak and blind 
 
G                        Em 
I can feel it in your voice 
  A      (Bm         D     D/C#           A) 
Ever so sweet, no 
G                     Em     A    (Bm     D     D/C#           A) 
Do I really have a choice? No, no, no! 
 
 
 
 
{Jorn Lande:} 
 
Bm     D     D/C#           A 
Oh, you burn your feet on unholy ground 
Bm     D     D/C#           A 
You roam the barren wicked plains abound 
Bm     D     D/C#           A 
In evil eyes and evil speak 
Bm     D     D/C#           A 
About it all your evil freaks 
 
G                Em          A          Bm     D     D/C#           A 
When you say it's all divine and meant to be 
 
G              Em                A          Bm 
What about your flesh and blood and defires like me? 
 
Their evil eyes are looking down on you 
And those who don't are losing sight of you 
Face the rage to chase away 
The specter of disgrace and shame 
 
Withered roses dying on the ledge 
A withered dreamer standing on the edge 
You dream of love but you wake up to pain 
You're better off to join in my game 
 
G                          Em            A 
Then she'll better off to cry contrite tears 
 
G                 Em            A                G 
One day she'll wonder why she had to let you disappear, 
 
 
 
D   D/C#   Bm 
Rise to fame ? your time has come 
 
Bm     D       A               
Time will come to take the sun 
 
D   D/C#   Bm 
Make your claim - you're drawn to the sound 
 
Bm     D       A 
Time has come ? you're leaving ground 
 
Rise to fame - the flight of the crow 
Time will come - cross the line 
Your time has come - for the crow to fly away 
 
It's a flight to hell 
Can you hear the bell 
The devil has come 
To take your soul away 
A flight to hell - alright 
Bm  G A Em F#m 
 
 
I'm a stranger 
I'm a changer 
And I'm danger 
Fallen angel 
Waiting for the prey
