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