[F] [Eb] [Dm] [G]
[C]
[F] [C] I [Bb]
[G] am a Viking of some note, it's my [Eb] name and here I float.
Out on the sea in a great big boat [Gm] and I'm the [C] one who beats the [F] drum inside.
[Eb]
[Dm] So he owes a [Gm] drive our galleons [C] on.
And while we [Em] rode we [C] had our soul and we had our God.
[Bb] And it may seem [Ab]
odd but [G] at least there was a cause.
And while [Dm] we were on the sail on the sea [G] we got down on a little [C] ship and all the way along we sailed.
And we never [F] flew it all [Dm] we never bothered.
[Bb] Late at night I lay on deck wondering why I risked my neck.
The pitch of my stomach is sinking and [Gm] I'm down I'm [C] going not [F] knowing why.
[Eb] I [Dm] just can't quite [G] recall the [C] reason why.
It's such a drag to [D] carry on but there was [Bb] a cause.
But there was a cause.
[Eb] There [G] was a reason.
[C] Reason.
[F] If [A] you [Eb] like [Dm] I'll be your [Em] Viking.
[C] Sit you down to an Ordic meal, give you strength that you might wield.
A [Gm] Viking sword and a Viking shield and [C] off we'll sail in [F] mighty ships of yore.
[Dm] Perhaps we shouldn't let our [C] hands get sore.
Maybe [D] someone will pull [C] me o'er.
And if you're the [Bb] choice, [Ab] we oppose.
We [G] need a reason.
[C] [F] Reason why.
