Riding the Thunder Road (Alternate)

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Odins calling me home

Verse 1

Blood on the shield and the north wind bites

Raven overhead singing songs of the fight

I fell where the axes kissed the frost

Woke up walking where the dead are the host

Pre-Chorus

Golden gates in the distance glow

Fallen warriors row by row

I got nothing left to fear tonight

The mead halls waiting in the light

Chorus

Riding to Valhalla on the thunder road

Berserker heart and a heavy load

The Valkyrie lifts me off the frozen ground

Valhalla Valhalla I'm homeward bound

(Valhalla I'm home)

Drop

Valhalla

Valhalla

Verse 2

Six hundred battles carved in my skin

Every scar a story where I gave in

The spear remembers what the flesh forgot

Brave men fall but the legend does not

Pre-Chorus

Eagles circle overhead tonight

Honor burning like a torchlight

I been waiting all my mortal days

To walk the bridge through the smoky haze

Chorus

Riding to Valhalla on the thunder road

Berserker heart and a heavy load

The Valkyrie lifts me off the frozen ground

Valhalla Valhalla I'm homeward bound

(Valhalla I'm home)

Bridge

All my brothers at the long oak table

Singing louder than the northern gale

Odin pours the horn and passes it round

Every fallen warrior makes a sound

Drop

Valhalla

Valhalla

Valhalla

Chorus

Riding to Valhalla on the thunder road

Berserker heart and a heavy load

The Valkyrie lifts me off the frozen ground

Valhalla Valhalla I'm homeward bound

(Valhalla I'm home)

Outro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Valhalla
