[Verse]
F#m Bm
The sun rose over the wasteland
F#m Bm F#m
As far as the eye can see
Bm
Sand fills the vast plains of Serkland
A C#
It's vultures jeering at me
F#m E A
But they can circle until they drop dead
Bm E
I have not come this far
F#m E D Bm
To end, but to pursue my own thread
C#
To join The Varangian Guard
[Chorus]
F#m A B F#m
Guards of glory and of might
D A E C#
Red as blood and black as night
F#m A B C#m
Flies our banner as we march
D F#m
In the East, for the king of the Greek
[Verse]
F#m Bm
There's men of the cross and the hammer
F#m Bm F#m
A few of the moon crescent
Bm
Men simply searching for glamour
A C#
Some concealing their royal descent
F#m E A
The axe-bearing foreigners they have aptly named us
Bm E
All we've come from afar
F#m E D Bm
Diversity is what unites us
C#
We are The Varangian Guard
[Chorus]
F#m A B F#m
Guards of glory and of might
D A E C#
Red as blood and black as night
F#m A B C#m
Flies our banner as we march
D F#m
In the East, for the king of the Greek
