[Intro]
N.C.
Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
C#m
Keep watching over Durin's sons
[Verse 1]
C#m E
If this is to end in fire
B A
Then we should all burn together
C#m E B F#m7
Watch the flames climb high into the night
C#m E B A
Calling out father, oh, stand by and we will
F#m7 E/G# A
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
[Verse 2]
C#m E
And if we should die tonight
B A
Then we should all die together
C#m E B F#m7
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
C#m E B A
Calling out father, oh, prepare as we will
F#m7 E/G# A
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
F#m7 E/G# A
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
C#m A B C#m
Now I see fire, inside the mountain
C#m A B C#m
I see fire, burning the trees
C#m A B C#m
And I see fire, hollowing souls
C#m A B F#m7
I see fire, blood in the breeze
And I hope that you'll remember me
[Instrumental]
C#m A B C#m
[Verse 3]
C#m E
Oh, should my people fall
B A
Then surely I'll do the same
C#m E
Confined in mountain halls
B F#m7
We got too close to the flame
C#m E B A
Calling out father, oh, hold fast and we will
F#m7 E/G# A
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
F#m7 E/G# A
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
C#m A B C#m
Now I see fire, inside the mountain
C#m A B C#m
I see fire, burning the trees
C#m A B C#m
And I see fire, hollowing souls
C#m A B F#m7
I see fire, blood in the breeze
F#m7
And I hope that you'll remember me
[Bridge]
F#m7 C#m
And if the night is burning
E B
I will cover my eyes
F#m7 C#m
For if the dark returns then
E B
My brothers will die
F#m7 C#m
And as the sky is falling down
E B
It crashed into this lonely town
F#m7
And with that shadow upon the ground
E/G# A B
I hear my people screaming out
[Chorus]
C#m A B C#m
Now I see fire, inside the mountain
C#m A B C#m
I see fire, burning the trees
C#m A B C#m
And I see fire, hollowing souls
C#m A B C#m
I see fire, blood in the breeze
C#m A B C#m
I see fire, oh you know I saw a city burning (fire)
C#m A B C#m
I see fire, feel the heat upon my skin (fire)
C#m A B C#m
And I see fire, oooooo (fire)
C#m A B C#m
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side
