Back In The Village
Iron Maiden
[Intro] Am x4 [Verse 1] Gsus4 Gsus4 Turn the spotlights on the people Switch the dial and eat the worm Take your chances kill the engine Drop your bombs and let it burn [Pre-Chorus 1] White flags shot to ribbons The truce is black and burned Shellshock in the kitchen Tables overturned [Chorus 1] Back in the village again In the village I’m back in the village again [Verse 2] Gsus4 Gsus4 Throwing dice now rolling loaded I see sixes all the way In a black hole and I’m spinning As my wings get shot away [Pre-Chorus 2] Questions are a burden And answers are a prison for oneself Shellshock in the kitchen Tables start to burn [Chorus 2] Back in the village again In the village I’m back in the village again [Bridge Part 1] Am x4 / / x2 [Guitar Solo 1] x2 [Bridge Part 2] / / x2 [Guitar Solo 2] [Bridge Part 3] [Verse 3] No breaks on the inside Paper cats and burning barns There’s a fox among the chickens And a killer in the hounds [Pre-Chorus 3] Questions are a burden And answers are a prison for oneself Shellshock in the kitchen Tables start to burn [Chorus 3] Back in the village again In the village I’m back in the village again [Interlude] But still we walk into the valley And others try to kill the inner flame We’re burning brighter than before I don’t have a number I’m a name [Chorus 4] Back in the village again In the village I’m back in the village again yeah! Back in the village again In the village I’m back in the village again [Outro] Back in the village and I’m back in the village and I’m back in the village again
