[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
G#m
Keep watching over Durin's son
G#m E F# G#m
G#m E F# G#m
[Verse]
G#m B
If this is to end in fire
F# E
Then we should all burn together
G#m B F# C#m
Watch the flames climb high into the night
G#m B F# E
Calling out for the rope, sent by and we will
C#m D#m
Watch the flames burn over and over
E
The mountain side
[Interlude]
G#m E F# G#m
[Verse]
G#m B
And if we should die tonight
F# E
Then we should all die together
G#m B F# C#m
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
G#m B
Calling out for the rope
F# E
Prepare as we will
C#m D#m
Watch the flames burn over and over
E
The mountain side
C#m D#m E~
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
G#m E
Now I see fire
F# G#m
Inside the mountain
G#m E
I see fire
F# G#m
Burning the trees
G#m E
And I see fire
F# G#m
Hollowing souls
G#m E
And I see fire
F# C#m~
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me
[Solo]
G#m E F# G#m
G#m E F# G#m
[Verse]
G#m B
Oh, should my people fall in
F# E
Surely I'll do the same
G#m B
Come finding mountain holes
F# E
We got too close to the flame
G#m B
Calling out for the rope
F# E
Hold fast and we will
C#m D#m
Watch the flames burn over and over
E
The mountain side
C#m D#m E~
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
G#m E
Now I see fire
F# G#m
Inside the mountain
G#m E
I see fire
F# G#m
Burning the trees
G#m E
And I see fire
F# G#m
Hollowing souls
G#m E
And I see fire
F# C#m~
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me
[Bridge]
C#m G#m
And if the night is burning
B F#
I will cover my eyes
C#m G#m
For if the dark returns then
B F#
My brothers will die
C#m G#m
And as the sky's falling down
B F#
It crashed into this lonely town
C#m
And with that shadow upon the ground
D#m E F#
I hear my people screaming out
[Chorus]
G#m E
Now I see fire
F# G#m
Inside the mountain
G#m E
I see fire
F# G#m
Burning the trees
G#m E
And I see fire
F# G#m
Hollowing souls
G#m E
And I see fire
F# C#m
Blood in the breeze
[Outro]
G#m E
I see fire
F# G#m
(oh you know I saw a city burn) fire
G#m E
I see fire
F# G#m
(feel the heat upon my skin) fire
G#m E
I see fire
F# G#m
(Ooooh) fire
G#m
And I see fire
E F# G#m
burn on and on and the mountains high
[Intro]
