[Fade in] Samurai Samurai Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [growling] (Hu!!! Kiah!!!) [Intro] [Melodic Dm-Bb-F-Am] Samurai Samurai Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [growling] (Hu!!! Kiah!!!) [Verse 1] Rice field mud on my boots Moon cuts the armor clean Mother tied my sleeve tight Said, “Come back with your name” Steel kiss at my hip Old blade knows my hand I walk where the crows go Past the gate, past the ash [Pre-Chorus] If I fall, let it be On the road I chose If I break, let it show I was never yours [Chorus] [HUGE - growling voice] Samurai! (Don’t cry!) Samurai! (Hold line!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! Samurai! (Don’t bow!) Samurai! (Not now!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [Instrumental Break] Samurai Samurai Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [growling] (Hu!!! Kiah!!!) [Verse 2] Enemy drums in the dark I count them by the breath Your lies wore a silk face Mine wore the open death I gave my fear to the wind Watched it vanish fast One cut for the oath I made One cut for the past [Pre-Chorus] If I fall, let it be On the road I chose If I break, let it show I was never yours [Chorus] [HUGE - growling voice] Samurai! (Don’t cry!) Samurai! (Hold line!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! Samurai! (Don’t bow!) Samurai! (Not now!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [Bridge] Tell my son my name Not the way I died Tell him I kept my fire Even when it burned inside One last step, one last breath Then the dawn can come If my hands go cold tonight My vow still runs [Chorus] [HUGE - growling voice] Samurai! (Don’t cry!) Samurai! (Hold line!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! Samurai! (Don’t bow!) Samurai! (Not now!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [Final Chorus] [HUGE - growling voices, POWERFULL!!!] Samurai! (Don’t cry!) Samurai! (Hold line!) Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! Samurai! (Stand proud!) Samurai! (Say it loud!) Blood and rain! (On ground!) I stand where! (I’m bound!) [Outro] Samurai! (Stand proud!) Samurai! (Say it loud!) Blood and rain! (On ground!) [Fade out] Samurai Samurai Samura-i-a-i-a-i-ai! [growling] (Hu!!! Kiah!!!)
