Keeper Of The Flame Chords & Lyrics - Blackmore's Night

[INTRO]
[Am]

[VERSE]
[Am]Once was a [G]legend of [Am]old
In the time of [G]days long a[C]go
The [F]clattering [G]beat of a [Am]horse on the [G]street
He ap[F]peared from the [E7]fog like a [Am]ghost

[VERSE]
I could feel him [G]heading this [Am]way
A storm was [G]filling the [C]air
If the [F]truth would be [G]told, when the [Am]winds blow [G]cold
They're [F]warning you [E7]to be[Am]ware

[CHORUS]
[E]No, [F]the [G]wild [F]cannot [E]be tamed
Kee[F]per [G]of [F]the[Dm] flame

[VERSE]
We [Am]wondered what [G]devil is [Am]this
Who appears from [G]out of the [C]mist
With a [F]crack of a [G]whip and a [Am]wave of his [G]fist
He was [F]cursed and [E7]I was be[Am]witched

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[G]

[VERSE]
[Am]Haunted by [G]seeing his[Am] face
Through the mirror, [G]smoke and the [C]haze
[F]So hard to [G]see through the [Am]dark mys[G]tery
The il[F]lusion was [E7]part of his[Am] game

[CHORUS]
[E]No, [F]the [G]wild [F]cannot [E]be tamed
Kee[F]per [G]of [F]the[Dm] flame

[VERSE]
Be [Am]careful of [G]what you w[Am]ish for
And make sure when it [G]knocks at your [C]door
It'll [F]be what you [G]need, not s[Am]ome fanta[G]sy
That will [F]haunt you for[E7]ever [Am]more
Let it [F]be what you [G]need, not s[Am]ome fanta[G]sy
That will [F]haunt you for[E7]ever [Am]more
