[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
Dm
Keep watching over Durin's sons
[Verse 1]
Dm F
If this is to end in fire
C A#
Then we should all burn together
Dm F C Gm7
Watch the flames climb high into the night
Dm F C A#
Calling out father, oh, stand by and we will
Gm7 F/A A#
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
[Verse 2]
Dm F
And if we should die tonight
C A#
Then we should all die together
Dm F C Gm7
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
Dm F C A#
Calling out father, oh, prepare as we will
Gm7 F/A A#
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
Gm7 F/A A#
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
Dm A# C Dm
Now I see fire, inside the mountain
Dm A# C Dm
I see fire, burning the trees
Dm A# C Dm
And I see fire, hollowing souls
Dm A# C Gm7
I see fire, blood in the breeze
And I hope that you'll remember me
[Instrumental]
Dm A# C Dm
[Verse 3]
Dm F
Oh, should my people fall
C A#
Then surely I'll do the same
Dm F
Confined in mountain halls
C Gm7
We got too close to the flame
Dm F C A#
Calling out father, oh, hold fast and we will
Gm7 F/A A#
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
Gm7 F/A A#
Desolation comes upon the sky
[Chorus]
Dm A# C Dm
Now I see fire, inside the mountain
Dm A# C Dm
I see fire, burning the trees
Dm A# C Dm
And I see fire, hollowing souls
Dm A# C Gm7
I see fire, blood in the breeze
Gm7
And I hope that you'll remember me
[Bridge]
Gm7 Dm
And if the night is burning
F C
I will cover my eyes
Gm7 Dm
For if the dark returns then
F C
My brothers will die
Gm7 Dm
And as the sky is falling down
F C
It crashed into this lonely town
Gm7
And with that shadow upon the ground
F/A A# C
I hear my people screaming out
[Chorus]
Dm A# C Dm
Now I see fire, inside the mountain
Dm A# C Dm
I see fire, burning the trees
Dm A# C Dm
And I see fire, hollowing souls
Dm A# C Dm
I see fire, blood in the breeze
Dm A# C Dm
I see fire, oh you know I saw a city burning (fire)
Dm A# C Dm
I see fire, feel the heat upon my skin (fire)
Dm A# C Dm
And I see fire, oooooo (fire)
Dm A# C Dm
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side
