Hand Of Death

D

[Verse 1]
D                                F#m
Rehearsing for the tournament of champions
Bm                                      E
Somebody's going to have to cleanse the temple
G        Gadd2     A
Train by moonlight all night

[Chorus 1]
D                        F#m
Practice with a blindfold on
Bm                                 E7
Try not to think too hard about the neighbors
G                                     D
Hop on my balcony that overlooks the harbor
G            A                  Bm
Preparing to deploy the hand of death
G            A                  Bm
Preparing to deploy the hand of death

[Verse 2]
D                           F#m
Rest among the ruins of old empires
Bm                          E
Rise from my heavy sleep at sundown
G      D     A
Byways on my pathways beckoning

[Chorus 2]
D                   F#m
Stay focused on the target
Bm                             E
Feel close enough to taste its beating heart
G                          D
Hungry as a captive of the king
G            A                  Bm
Preparing to deploy the hand of death
G            A                  D
Preparing to deploy the hand of death

[Bridge]
E7
Sure and steady
       G
Almost ready


[Chorus 3]
D                                      F#m
Remind myself to breathe, heed thou my counsel
Bm                                  E7
Skin and bones and blood and tender flesh
G                                D
There will be no return to these beginnings
G            A                  Bm
Preparing to deploy the hand of death
G            A                  Bm
Preparing to deploy the hand of death
