[Intro]
Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
Dm
Keep watching over Durin's son
Dm A# C Dm
Dm A# C Dm
[Verse]
Dm F
If this is to end in fire
C A#
Then we should all burn together
Dm F C Gm
Watch the flames climb high into the night
Dm F C A#
Calling out for the rope, sent by and we will
Gm Am
Watch the flames burn over and over
A#
The mountain side
[Interlude]
Dm A# C Dm
[Verse]
Dm F
And if we should die tonight
C A#
Then we should all die together
Dm F C Gm
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
Dm F
Calling out for the rope
C A#
Prepare as we will
Gm Am
Watch the flames burn over and over
A#
The mountain side
Gm Am A#~
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Now I see fire
C Dm
Inside the mountain
Dm A#
I see fire
C Dm
Burning the trees
Dm A#
And I see fire
C Dm
Hollowing souls
Dm A#
And I see fire
C Gm~
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me
[Solo]
Dm A# C Dm
Dm A# C Dm
[Verse]
Dm F
Oh, should my people fall in
C A#
Surely I'll do the same
Dm F
Come finding mountain holes
C A#
We got too close to the flame
Dm F
Calling out for the rope
C A#
Hold fast and we will
Gm Am
Watch the flames burn over and over
A#
The mountain side
Gm Am A#~
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]

Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me
[Bridge]
Gm Dm
And if the night is burning
F C
I will cover my eyes
Gm Dm
For if the dark returns then
F C
My brothers will die
Gm Dm
And as the sky's falling down
F C
It crashed into this lonely town
Gm
And with that shadow upon the ground
Am A# C
I hear my people screaming out
[Chorus]
Dm A#
Now I see fire
C Dm
Inside the mountain
Dm A#
I see fire
C Dm
Burning the trees
Dm A#
And I see fire
C Dm
Hollowing souls
Dm A#
And I see fire
C Gm
Blood in the breeze
[Outro]
Dm A#
I see fire
C Dm
(oh you know I saw a city burn) fire
Dm A#
I see fire
C Dm
(feel the heat upon my skin) fire
Dm A#
I see fire
C Dm
(Ooooh) fire
Dm
And I see fire
A# C Dm
burn on and on and the mountains high
