[Verse 1]
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The Queen of Light took her bow, and then she turned to go
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom, and walked the night alone
D
(Oh, dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light)
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The Dark Lord rides in force tonight and time will tell us all
D
(Oh, throw down your plow and hoe, rest not to lock your homes)
Am G Am C Am G Am C
Side by side we wait the might of the darkest of them all
|D | % | % | % |Am G |Am C |Am G |Am C |
[Chorus 1]
A7 D A7 D
I hear the horses thunder, down in the valley below
G7 C G7 C
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the eastern glow
[Verse 2]
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The ground is rich from tender care, repay, do not forget
D
(Oh, dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light)
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The apples turn to brown and black, the tyrant's face is red
D
(Oh, war is the common cry, pick up your swords and fly)
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The sky is filled with good and bad that mortals never know
|D | % | % | % |Am G |Am C |Am G |Am C |
(oh-oh-h)
[Chorus 2]
A7 D A7 D
Oh well, the night is long, the beads of time pass slow
G7 C G7 C
Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow
[Verse 3]
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of th' aftermath
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The drums will shake the castle wall, the Ringwraiths ride in black, ride..
D
...on (Sing as you raise your bow, shoot straighter than before)
Am G Am C Am G Am C
No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold
D
(Oh, dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light)
Am G Am C Am G Am C
The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance back, bring it back
|D | % | % | % |Am G |Am C |Am G |Am C |
[Chorus 3]
A7 D A7 D
At last the sun is shining, the clouds of blue roll by
G7 C G7 C
With flames from the dragon of darkness the sunlight blinds his eyes

On "I hear the horses, down in the valley below" I believe it is A7 instead of C. Give that a try.

G7 C G7

looks and sounds good to me. my only question is: why has a song that has been around since the dawn of time, covered VERY well by the love mongers and been played by countless garage bands only have 4 comments and 34 ratings? very odd.
