Once we [A]were in our peace
With our [E]lives assured.
Once we [A]were
Not [D]afraid of the [A]dark.
Once we [A]sat in our kingdom
With [E]hope and pride.
Once we [A]ran through
The [D]fields with great [A]strides.
We [A]held the [F#m]Fade
And the [D]demon’s flight
So [A]far from our children
And [E]from our lives.
We [F#m]held together
The [D]fragile sky
To [A]keep our [D]way of [A]life.
Once we [A]raised
Up our chalice
In [E]victory.
Once we [A]sat
In the [D]light of our [A]dreams.
Once we [A]were
In our homeland
With [E]strength and might.
Once we [A]were
Not [D]afraid of [A]the night.
We [A]held the [F#m]Fade
And the [D]demon’s flight
So [A]far from our children
And [E]from our lives.
We [A]held [F#m]together
The [D]fragile sky
To [A]keep our [D]way of [A]life.
