Someone commented on the YT video of this that they wanted the lyrics, and I don't actually think I've posted them on the web before, so here they are with chords :)

Lyrics/Chords:

Will you follow me one last time?
      Am                                       E*
Will you follow me one last time?
      Am                                       G*
In my last, darkest hour, this one thing I ask;
        C                       G                 Am             Em
Will you follow me one last time?
       Am                                      G*

*These three chords can be E or G as desired on each verse – G gives a more "heroic" or upbeat feel, E rather more sinister. The last one should usually be G but doesn't have to be.

Remember how our tale began,
Under hill, with the mark on the door?
Now remember the road that we strode down so bold,
And give me your trust this once more.

Remember the lands we have seen?
The mountains of grey, streams of blue,
Through forests and moorlands and all of our foes,
Our company still has stayed true

Remember the dragon's dark fire?
Our kindred all scattered and slain?
Remember our songs that we sang to bring hope,
And sing them with me once again.
Yes, sing them with me once again.

               Am               G                 Am                G
There's a fire in your eyes and a fire in your hearts,
     Am              G               Am              G
A tale that has yet to be written or told,
     Am               G                 Am                G
Let this be the song that the minstrels will sing,
       Am                    Em                     G                    Am
Our tale that shines brighter than wildfire and gold

Will you follow me one last time?
From shadow and into the light?
For all I've done evil, for all I've done wrong,
This battle's my last one to fight.

Will you follow me one last time?
Will you raise my banner, my friends?
Come forth from the mountain to war's blackest storm
And find out how my story ends...
Come forth from the mountain to war's blackest storm
And find out how my story ends!
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...
