Intro (2x):
      Gm       Dm    B   F
Rabanda  Rabandabaya Aaaah
      Gm       Dm    B   Gm
Rabanda  Rabandabaya Rabadanbayah

Verse:
     Gm        F        Dm          F
The castle is lit with candles and torches
     B                Dm                    F
The carriages of the nobles arrive in the front
      B         Dm         Gm    F
The smell of splendor and decadence
     B          Gm
And nobody can foresee

     Gm              F              Dm               F
The masters and the mistresses are walking into the hall
           B       Dm            F
They are smiling, laughing and showing that they are tall
  B              Dm              Gm        F     
They don't recognize that we're waiting there
          B          Gm
And just nobody can foresee

Bridge:
             F                 Gm
This is the last night of the kings

Chorus:
 F          Gm       B           Gm
We are the folk and we have the right
         B          Gm          Dm           F
To stand up and to fight for an independent life
 F          Gm       B        Gm
We are the force, we are the might
     B            Gm        Dm           Gm
And we will stand up for an independent life

Verse:
     Gm         F              Dm          F
The ball has begun and we're closing our trap
   B            Dm           F
Inwardly we're gathering ourselves
  B        Dm             Gm     F
While the dance comes to higher pace
       B          Gm
Still nobody can foresee

 Gm          F            Dm            F
Joining the circles, in black robes unknown
    B             Dm            F
Unsheathing our swords and get ready to dance
     Dm         Gm              F          Dm
Our hearts are filled with the will to survive
         Gm                  Dm
In this last night of their life

        Gm         Dm        Gm
It's a murderous, murderous ball night

Chorus (as above):
 F          Gm       B           Gm
We are the folk and we have the right
         B          Gm          Dm           F
To stand up and to fight for an independent life
 F          Gm       B        Gm
We are the force, we are the might
     B            Gm        Dm           Gm
And we will stand up for an independent life

      Gm       Dm
Rabanda  Rabanda
      Am       Em    C   G
Rabanda  Rabandabaya Aaaah
      Am       Em    C   Am
Rabanda  Rabandabaya Rabadanbayah

Bridge (2/2 measure):
Am      C       G             Am
We are heroes, heroes of the night
Am      C     G         Am
We are ready to live forevermore
Am        C         G          Am
Our gods lead us through this fight
Am     C   G     Am      C  G    Am
On and on we are one and on our way

Refrain (3/4 measure):
 G          Am       C           Am
We are the folk and we have the right
         C          Am          Em           G
To stand up and to fight for an independent life
 G          Am       C        Am
We are the force, we are the might
     C            Am        Em           Am
And we will stand up for an independent life

      Am       Em    C   G
Rabanda  Rabandabaya Aaaah
      Am       Em    C   Am
Rabanda  Rabandabaya Rabadanbayah
