Blind Guardian - The Maiden And The Minstrel Knight Chords & Tabs

Ok, first tab, be nice :)

I've made this version mainly for playing just with an acoustic guitar, and the voice of course.


       Gm             F               Gm
The faithful crowd is gathered here
               F          Gm
Soon they'll appear
             F                  Gm
The high and mighty show up the king
      F           Gm
Is in doubts
                 F             Gm
"Apart from this beggar here
                    F               Gm
There's no one like you my dear
           F
Tasting my lips
           Gm  A#  F
No one but you and him"

          Gm   F               Gm
Round the fire everyone should sing
    Gm         C        F
And praise the gracious queen
          Gm   F               Gm
Round the fire everyone should dance
       Gm         F        C
And we praise the handsome knight

  D#                 F
Forever and ever we both will be one
     D#                      F
The maiden, the fair and the young
Fell in love

Will you still wait for me?

          Gm        F                 C               Gm
There's a moment in life when all the years will pass by
        Gm               F             C
And the eyes filled with tears we once shed
   Gm        F             C         Gm
We recognize failures, the desperate cries
       Gm       F               Gm
Of the ones who believed in our lies

(Gm, F)
Yesterday's memories and melodies
Are gone with the wind, so sad
Snow-white her hands and golden her hair
But she's not the one
Out in the emptiness where everything's pale
There is no sign of you, I'm alone
How I wish you would be here, I'm alone
Telling me it's alright

D#                        F
Come rest your head
Come rest your head
Come rest your head
Come rest your head

(Gm, F, Gm)

    Gm         F             C
I'm alone and sadness reigns in my heart
    Gm        F             Gm
As long as we live it won't go away
       Gm      F      C    
We are one but torn apart

Gm             F
Will you still wait for me?
C              D#
Will you still cry for me?

Will you still cry for me?

Come and take my hand


Gm          F
Proudly it stands
   C              Gm
Until the world's end
       Gm        F       Gm
The victorious banner of love
