Iron Maiden - The Great Unknown

      
 
 VERSE 
 
 
 Em   Em9  Em Em7  Em  Em11  Em9  Em 
 Winter softly falling to the ground
 
 Em   Em9  Em Em7  Em  Em11  Em9  Em  
 Calmly waiting don't you hear a sound
 
 Em   Em9                                   Em Em7 
 When the world has fallen to the depths below
 Em  Em11                                   Em9 Em 
 Where the future's open and the fear has grown
 
 Em   Em9                                   Em Em7 
 And the path to follow to the great unknown
 Em  Em11                                   Em9 Em 
 Where the dark has fallen and the seed is sown

 PART 2 
 
 
 E5 F#5            D E        
 In the selfish hearts of some
 E/G  E/A  E/F#  E/G E/F# 
 The nightmare's coming
 E5 F#5            D E            
 With the spilling blood of others
 G  A   E5           
 Now wringing through
 E5 F#5            D E       
 Now the cup is spilling over
 E/G  E/A  E/F#  E/G E/F# 
 Wake to news of death
 E5 F#5            D E    
 And the prophecy of sages
 G  A   E5     
 Destiny is met
 
 E5 F#5            D E      
 To the depths of human mind
 E/G  E/A  E/F#  E/G E/F# 
 The cry is burning
 E5 F#5            D E  
 With the mentor's anger
 G  A   E5                 
 Of the lesson ringing true
 
 E5 F#5            D E    
 And for those who live by
 E/G  E/A  E/F#  E/G E/F#  
 and are dying by the sword
 E5 F#5            D E                
 They will take their ideals with them
 G  A   E5        
 Justify their end
 
 CHORSU 
 
 C                             A                  
 Where the fools are lying and the meek are crying
 B                           
 Where the wolves are preying
 G     A          
 On the weak alone
 C                       
 Where the sons are dying
 A                        
 Hear their mothers crying
 B                            
 And the distant sound of fire
 G        A  E 
 Begins again
 
 G    Dm7        Csus           
 Never ending the desires of men
 G    Dm7              E5             
 It'll never be the same or calm again
 G    Dm7        Csus                          
 In a time of changing hearts And great unknown
 G    Dm7                   E5           
 It'll be the damnation and end of us all
