[C] One day in the [G]year of the fox

[Am]Tolling of the great black bell
(bass)
[C] One day in the [G]year of the fox when the
[E]Bell began to [Am]ring, it meant the
[F]Time had come for the [G]one to go to the
[Am]Temple of the King
[Dm]There in the middle of the circle, he stands
[Am]Searching, seeking,
With [G]just one touch of his trembling hand
The [Am]answer will be found
[Dm]Daylight waits for the oldman's scream
[Am]Heaven, help me,
[G]Just like a rush of [Dm]thousand wings
It [E]shines upon the world
And the [F]day has [G]just [Am]begun
