Em
Now it's all done
    C                          D
She made up her mind and she's still
 believin'
Em
The last knight's gone
   C                           D
He promised the queen he would kill 
the evil
Em                           D
Once more brave knights fell on evry
 side
Em                            C
Once more they fought in such deadly
 earnest
Em                     D
But no one was able to be back again
Em              C    D
No one could survive


[Verse 2]
Em
Long before
C                D
She was a lovely gentle maiden
Em
Then she turned
C                  D
Into a monster she don't surrender
   Em                    D
In spite of the terrible slaughter 
she caused
Em                 C
Kriemhild lust was not appeased
    Em                  D
She couldn't forget the day 
Siegfried died
    Em                   C   D
She couldn't forget that day


[Chorus]
Em        B7/D#              D
Kriemhild hatred killed them all

    Em
The story end
    C                       D
She cut off the head of the hated 
Hagen
Em
One knight came
C              D
Exasperated he slew the queen
   Em                     D
In spite of the terrible slaughter 
she caused
Em                 C
Kriemhild lust was not appeased
    Em                  D
She couldn't forget the day 
Siegfried died
    Em                   C     D
She couldn't forget that day
