Great peril awaits us beyond the Black River
Summoned by the beating of drums
Our number is few our errand is dire
We do what must be done

[Verse 2]
---------------------
G#5
  At the bidding of the high priest
Tribes gather for war
Evil sorcery is unleashed
                       G#5
Upon the opposite shore

[Verse 3]

  Make your stand with the great hound
Frontier is lost
Black waters lie before you
Together you cross

Take heart!
Do not fear
When you know
Your death nears

[Verse 5]

      We shall build you a cairn beyond the Black River
Where no one will disturb you rest
There you shall lay in your helm and your harness
Your sword across your breast

             Now take a quick moment to answer this question
       G#5   F#sus2              C#sus2B5 
As the ferry approaches the shore
     G#5          F#sus2   C#sus2        B5 
Will you have the coin  to pay  for your passage
        G#5     F#sus2
And the courage to    take up the oar?
E5 | D#5 | B5 | G#5
