Chosen at the Shield Wall

Intro

Mm

Oh-oh

(Rise)

Verse 1

We met where the shields split

Iron at dawn on the ridge

Two strangers bleeding the same red

I handed you my only blade

Pre-Chorus

Then the horns called us home

And I would not leave you alone

Chorus

Brother I chose you

Brother I chose you

Not for the glory

Not for the crown

Brother I chose you

Brother I chose you

Let the whole village frown

Verse 2

They cheered when we broke the line

They cheered for the spoil and the gold

But when your hand found mine

Their cheers went cold

Pre-Chorus

So we rode past the gate

And I told you to hold my weight

Chorus

Brother I chose you

Brother I chose you

Not for the glory

Not for the crown

Brother I chose you

Brother I chose you

Let the whole village frown

Bridge

I fought for a hall that shut its door

I bled for a name they would not say

But your shoulder carried me home from the war

And I would do it all the same way

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Brother I chose you

Brother I chose you

Not for the glory

Not for the crown

Brother I chose you

Brother I chose you

Let the whole village frown
