The Oath Undying (v1)

[Intro, Instrumental] [Build-up, Haunting melody played, cello, drum beat kicks in, thick accordion, guitar riff] [Verse 1] Ahoy! Dunharrow's hold, our spectral bones reside (Mist clings to us!) Bound by oath, a tale that's never died (Beneath the mountain's hide!) Isildur's curse, a heavy weight we bear (No rest for weary souls!) To guard the land, from shadows lurking there (Our watch forever rolls!) [Bridge] [Chorus] Heave ho, the spectral oars I pull! (Heave ho!) Across the mists, rise and lull! (Heave ho!) No sleep for us, until the oath is done (The Horn will call, the rising sun!) The Dead Men sing, beneath the setting moon (A haunting, mournful tune!) [Bridge] [Verse 2] Swords long rusted, shields turned cold and gray (Battles fought in vain!) Yet honor calls, we cannot disobey (Though victory's a distant gain!) Gondor's blood, within our veins still flows (A fading, spectral stain!) We wait in silence, for the breaking throes (And Isildur's curse to wane!) [Chorus] Heave ho, the spectral oars I pull! (Heave ho!) Across the mists, rise and lull! (Heave ho!) No sleep for us, until the oath is done (The Horn will call, the rising sun!) The Dead Men sing, beneath the setting moon (A haunting, mournful tune!) [Bridge] [Bridge] [Lone, mournful vocal line] [Solo male vocal] A king's decree, in stone the promise lies (A burden we must bear!) To guard the land, until the final sighs (A silent, endless prayer!) [Chorus] [music explodes] [triumphant vocals] Heave ho, the spectral oars I pull! (Heave ho!) Across the mists, rise and lull! (Heave ho!) No sleep for us, until the oath is done (The Horn will call, the rising sun!) The Dead Men sing, beneath the setting moon (A haunting, mournful tune!) [Outro] [Tempo slows] The Dead Men sing, a lullaby of woe (A spectral, endless song!) Bound by duty, forever we shall go (Until the breaking dawn!)
