Verse
 
Dm                          C Dm 
  Arose from the ashes, the remains of a time set aside 
                           C  Dm 
The warrior of Eden, bound by honor as two words collide 
Bb                              A 
On and on and on, with glory he came, he saw, he conquered 
Dm                             C Dm 
  He gathered his armies, true elite squads, the Templars of Steel 
                            C    Dm  
They sought out the dragon, made the enemy bleed, made them kneel 
Bb                           A  
On and on and on, a legend unbent, unbowed, unbroken 
Bb                           C       
On and on and on, a story is born, a legacy reborn!

Verse
 
Dm                       C       Dm  
  Along came the thunder and the hero was set to return 
                            C   Dm  
With hearts fueled by fire, our spirits were now set to burn 
Bb                                 A  
On and on and on, the fire and the flame will burn forever 
Dm                           C       Dm  
  Still guarded by Templars, all the secrets of steel will remain 
                              C   Dm  
Cause we are the keepers, and for us this is real, not a game 
Bb                                A  
On and on and on, we followed his lead, we came, we conquered 
Bb                            C         
On and on and on, together we fight, together we will fall!
